Vegetation geoseries of the Ortles-Cevedale massif (central Alps, Italy) and their phytogeographic significance
The description of the vegetation geoseries (pemaseries, curtaseries oloseries) of the OrtlesCevedale massif, central Alps is reported; the study area is between 3,905 m (top of the Ortles) and 700-800 m (bottom of the valleys). For each geoseries the composition (i.e. the component series), the altitudinal belt and the phytoclimatic sectors are reported (21 geoseries). The map of the vegetation geoseries was also detected, on which each series is divided into their individuals of geoseries.
