| Preferred label | Northern Apennine [Xerobromion] |
| Definition | Open, arid pastures developed in the thermophilous deciduous [Quercus cerris-Quercus pubescens-Ostrya carpinifolia] belt of the northern Apennines, south approximately to the area of the Monte della Luna, southeastern Tuscany, where they occupy arenaceous-marly substrates and come in contact with the grasslands of unit 34.74, located on limestones and much richer in Apennine endemics. At their southern limit, the northern formations are rich in chamaephytes, notably [Coronilla minima], [Asperula purpurea], [Fumana procumbens], alongside [Astragalus monspessulanus], [Bromus erectus], [Brachypodium pinnatum] and [Festuca inops]. |
