Remarques

lem01 : The classification of the Lemnion minoris, Utricularion vulgaris and Hydrocharition morsus-ranae into the Lemnetalia and Lemnetea follows the traditions of the Central European phytosociology (Schratt 1993; Oťahelová in Valachovič 2001; Šumberová in Chytrý 2011), although some authors (Rivas-Martínez et al. 2001; Matuszkiewicz 2007) prefer to classify the Utricularion vulgaris and the Hydrocharition morsus-ranae into the Potamogetonetea. (LM, MC) According to Berg et al. (2001, 2004), this order can be split into three floristically and ecologically distinct alliances, namely the Lemnion minoris s.str., the Lemnion trisulcae (presently listed as a syntaxonomic synonym of the Lemnion minoris), and the Hydrocharition morsus-ranae.
