cyt03 | This unit, described here as a new order, the Spartio juncei-Cytisetalia scoparii (holotypus hoc loco: Sarothamnion scoparii Oberd. 1957) is a cool-temperate and submediterranean analogon of the Cytisetalia scopario-striati. It comprises species-poorer communities of three alliances (Sarothamnion scoparii Oberd. 1957, Cytision oromediterraneo-scoparii Rivas-Mart. et al. 2002 and Erico scopariae-Cytision scoparii Mucina in Mucina et al. 2015). These communities lack the core stock of the mediterranean retamoid and genistoid broom taxa. The character species of this order include: Cytisus scoparius, Erica scoparia and Spartium junceum. A detailed syntaxonomic delimitation of the temperate and mediterranean Cytisetea scopario-strati will be presented elsewhere. (L. Mucina).
