- Contribution to the knowledge of rocky plant communities of the Southwest Iberian PeninsulaPublication . Quinto Canas, Ricardo; Cano-Ortiz, Ana; Spampinato, Giovanni; del Río, Sara; Raposo, Mauro; Fuentes, José Carlos Piñar; Gomes, Carlos PintoThe rocky habitats of southern Portugal are ecosystems with extreme xericity conditions, associated with special abiotic strains. In these unstable ecological conditions, a considerable diversity of plant communities occurs. The objective of this study, carried out in the Algarve and Monchique, and the Mariánica Range biogeographical sectors, is to compare chasmo-chomophytic communities of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula, using a phytosociological approach (Braun–Blanquet methodology) and numerical analysis (hierarchical cluster analysis). From these results, two new communities were identified, Sanguisorbo rupicolae-Dianthetum crassipedis and Antirrhinetum onubensis, as a result of floristic and biogeographical differences from other associations already described within the alliances Rumici indurati-Dianthion lusitani and Calendulo lusitanicae-Antirrhinion linkiani, both included in the Phagnalo saxatilis-Rumicetea indurate class.
- Ecological and syntaxonomic analysis of the communities of glebionis coronaria and G. discolor (Malvion neglectae) in the European Mediterranean areaPublication . Cano, Eusebio; Cano-Ortiz, Ana; Quinto Canas, Ricardo; Piñar Fuentes, Jose Carlos; Meireles, Catarina Rodrigues; Raposo, Mauro; Gomes, Carlos Pinto; Laface, Valentina Lucia Astrid; Spampinato, Giovanni; Musarella, Carmelo MariaNitrophilous communities dominated by Glebionis coronaria and Glebionis discolor in the European Mediterranean area were studied. The nomenclature was corrected according to the current taxonomy, following the International Code of Phytosociological Nomenclature (ICPN). The statistical analysis revealed six new associations and one subassociation, with four in Spain, one in Greece, and one in Italy. Additionally, a subassociation of high relevance due to its endemic character was identified. These grasslands exhibit requirements for organic matter and other edaphic nutrients that are closer to those of Malva neglecta communities than to those of Hordeum murinum subsp. leporinum. We confirmed the published syntaxon with the rank of Resedo albae-Glebionenion coronariae suballiance and its subordination to the Malvion neglectae alliance, and we established the type association for this suballiance.

- Quercus rotundifolia Lam. Woodlands of the Southwestern Iberian PeninsulaPublication . Quinto Canas, Ricardo; Cano-Ortiz, Ana; Musarella, Carmelo Maria; del Río, Sara; Raposo, Mauro; Fuentes, José Carlos Piñar; Gomes, Carlos PintoThe holm oak woodlands as ecotonic phytocoenoses occur under different ecological conditions, and frequently representing the climax of edaphoxerophilous series of crests and siliceous rocky areas. In this paper we study the floristic, ecological, and biogeographical differences of the edaphoxerophilous holm oak woodlands of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula, included in the Querco rotundifoliae-Oleenion sylvestris suballiance. Our phytosociological (Braun–Blanquet methodology) and numerical analysis (hierarchical cluster analysis) of three formerly described association and our own samples lead us to propose a new association: Ulici argentei-Quercetum rotundifoliae, growing mostly on semihyperoceanic Monchique Sierran Biogeographic District, on rocky slopes and outcrops derived from schists and greywackes. Moreover, we present an overview of ecological features and the diversity of plant communities occurring in the serial dynamic of the thermophile holm oak woodlands of the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula.
