Definition Rare oak woods of the Danube basin lowlands developed in the transition zone between inundation areas and loess plateaux, on soils with a higher water table in spring. [Acer tataricum], growing with great vitality, reaches the second tree layer. Characteristic understorey species are [Carex michelii], [Pulmonaria mollissima], [Doronicum hungaricum] accompanying [Alopecurus pratensis], [Melica altissima], [Festuca rupicola], [Brachypodium sylvaticum], [Geranium robertianum], [Polygonatum latifolium], [Corydalis bulbosa] ([Corydalis cava]), [Ranunculus ficaria], [Viscaria vulgaris]; tall herbs ([Peucedanum officinale], [Galatella punctata]) and other species ([Artemisia pontica], [Limonium gmelinii i.a].) penetrate the wood from the bordering grasslands on alkaline soil. Only a few stands of this community remain, in Hungary and Transsylvania.
