The Tulcea hills region was little studied just from the point of view of the flora and phytocenology.
Through our studies into this area there were identified over 700 species of plants and 40 vegetable associations.
One of these is the association Stipo ucrainicae – Festucetum valesiacae Dihoru et Doniţă 1970 which was also described in Dobrogea in The Babadag plateau, Casimcea plateau, Murfatlar and Hagieni reservations.
The association is rich in species (over 200) among which almost 65% are characteristic to Festuco-Brometea class. |
