| Description | A peripheral site of thermophilous oak forest vegetation in Eastern Bohemia is reported from Střemošická stráň Nature Reserve near the town of Luže, Chrudim district. Our findings support the view that Vraclavský hřbet Ridge is an important outpost of thermophilous vegetation in Eastern Bohemia. The eastern boundary of distributional range of thermophilous oak forests in this region approaches the towns of Luže, Choceň and Dobruška. All of the recently known peripheral sites are confined to calcareous sediments of the Cretaceous. Other sites to the east are separated by a hiatus of more than 50 km in the region of Českomoravské mezihoří Upland. |
