Phytogeographical Analysis of the Flora of Mount Vermion (NC Greece)

  • Chapter

  • 22 Accesses

Abstract

Mount Vermion is located in NC Greece. Its orientation is N-S. It is a large mountain with calcareous substrate. The altitude of its highest peaks varies from 1650 to 2052 m. Due to its location within the boundaries of the Mediterranean and Middle-European regions and its geology, Vermion is a significant mountain from both a floristic and phytogeographical point of view. The total of the Greek endemic, Balkan endemic and Sub-Balkan taxa which occur on Vermion are analyzed as well as the chorological and life-form spectrum of the total flora which is composed of 1042 taxa (859 species, 183 subspecies). This analysis is particularly useful because it helps us to determine the phytogeographical connections existing between Vermion and other massives or phytogeographical regions of Greece and the Balkan Peninsula.
