Abstract
This paper presents a description of vegetation from the Corhan Hill-Sãbed village, Mureş County. The study area is situated in a part of the Transylvanian Depression of special relief. Climate and aspect have determined the development of dry vegetation of the order Festucetalia valesiacae. Two plant associations were identified on Corhan Hill: Stipetum pulcherrimae Soó 1942 and Medicagini minimae-Festucetum valesiacae Wagner 1941. An analysis of these plant associations was carried out, in relation to ecological factors (humidity, temperature and soil). Some rare, endemic and endangered plants of the Romanian flora were identified in this area.
