– fes11 Following the protologue, the Festucion sulcatae (Soó 1930) alliance clearly corresponds to the Festucion valesiacae (xeric communities). However, the same author later (Soó 1947) used this name exclusively for meso-xeric communities (today classified within the Cirsio-Brachypodion). This deed causes potential confusion that would be mitigated by rejecting the 'Festucion sulcatae Soó 1930' as nomen ambiguum. (L. Mucina, J. Dengler).
