Definition Communities of the montane and subalpine levels of high and moderately high mountains of the Alpine system and neighbouring ranges, dominated by tall grasses, accompanied by a species cortège similar to that of the subalpine tall-herb communities. They are bound to both siliceous and carbonate substrates. Characteristic species: [Calamagrostis arundinacea], [Calamagrostis villosa], [Deschampsia cespitosa]. In the Carpathians they are represented by a very high number of associations included in the alliances [Calamagrostion villosae], [Trisetion fusci], [Festucion carpaticae] and [Calamagrostion arundinaceae].
