Remarques

pyr02 : Bardat et al. (2004) suggested incorporating this order into the Erico-Pinetea – a view we do not support due to very different ecology and species composition of the understorey as well as contrasting evolutionary community assembly of the Erico-Pinetea and Pyrolo-Pinetea. (LM).
