Volyn-Podolian meadow steppes (Brachypodium pinnatum, Carex humilis, Festuca valesiaca, Stipa pennata, Stipa capillata, Festuca pallens, Sesleria heufleriana, Potentilla incana, Ranunculus zapalowiczii) alternating with petrophytic steppes (Helictotrichon desertorum, Teucrium pannonicum, Anthyllis vulneraria)
Description
Meadow steppes, and as the species composition suggests, of a Central European character. Carex humilis, Brachypodium pinnatum and Stipa capillata communities dominate. Fragments of Stipa pennata communities, in the southern part of the range there are meadow steppes with Sesleria heufleriana. At steep northern slopes grasslands with Helictotrichon desertorum, at southern slopes with Festuca pallens, Poa versicolor and Teucrium pannonicum. High degree of presence (IV-V) of the herb species of the meadow steppes.
