- The scrubland of limestone-derived decarbonated soils of the western Iberian PeninsulaPublication . Costa, J. C.; Pinto-Gomes, C.; Lopes, M. C.; Neto, Carlos; Monteiro-Henriques, T.; Arsénio, P; Silva, V.; Capelo, J.; Lousã, M.; Rivas-Martínez, S.In the present article, the proposal of a new suballiance, Lavandulo luisieri-Cistenion albidi, is presented, constituted by chamaephytic and nanophanerophytic communities in eroded decarbonated soils derived from limestones (leptosols, chromic luvisols and cambisols) in the dry to lower hyperhumid, thermo-mesomediterranean bioclimatic levels. It is distributed throughout the western Iberian Peninsula in the Coastal Lusitan-Andalusian and Lusitan-Extremadurean biogeographical territories. It is positioned in the Ulici argentei-Cistion ladaniferi, Lavanduletalia stoechadis, Cisto-Lavanduletea. The new associations Anthyllido maurae-Ulicetum jussiaei, Sedo albi-Cistetum crispi and Thymetum congesti are also described. The multivariate analysis confirmed the segregation of this new suballiance, as well as the new associations
