Remarks

EuroVegChecklist

sab01 | This proposal was suggested in Rivas-Martínez et al. (2002a), following the ICPN art. 10b. Although not approved by the Nomenclatural Commission yet, we prefer to use the inverted form as it is clear that Pinus sylvestris is the dominating element; nowadays the concept of this class is used for woodland communities. The addition of the specific epithet 'sabina' is, however, prohibited because there are two species of Juniperus occur in the original diagnosis (J. sabina, J. nana) and hence ICPN art. 40a applies. (L. Mucina, J.-P. Theurillat).
