Définition EUR 28

41.51 - Acidophilous forests of the Baltic-North Sea plain, composed of Quercus robur, Betula pendula and Betula pubescens, often mixed with Sorbus aucuparia and Populus tremula, on very oligotrophic, often sandy (or moraine) and podsolized or hydromorphic soils; the bush layer, poorly developed, includes Frangula alnus; the herb layer is formed by Deschampsia flexuosa and other grasses and herbs of acid soils (sometimes includes Molinia caerulea), and is often invaded by bracken. Forests of this type often prevail in the northern European plain and occupy more limited edaphic enclaves. Syntaxa: Querco-Betuletum, Molino-Quercetum, Trientalo- Quercetim roboris.
41.54 - Forests of Quercus robur and, sporadically Quercus pyrenaica or hybrids, on podzols, with a herb layer formed by the group of Deschampsia flexuosa, with Molinia caerulea and Peucedanum gallicum. Syntaxa: Peucedano-Quercetum roboris.
