S7-15 - Phryganes corses et sardes à Genista

Corsican and Sardinian Genista phrygana

Classification des habitats EUNIS 2022

Descriptif de l'habitat

Thermo-Mediterranean formations of headlands and peninsulas of Corsica and Sardinia dominated by cushion-forming spiny Genista corsica or Genista morisii. These endemic species participate in the constitution of hedgehog-heaths (unit S741) as well as in that of the coastal formations listed here, which assume an evident phrygana appearance; they may also enter in the composition of midelevation formations of less distinctive appearance which can be listed under unit S618.
