Other Site Characteristics

Sistema collinare di origine vulcanica. Presenza di filoni di roccia trachitica che si sporgono dai dossi circostanti costituiti da rocce sedimentarie, affioramenti di banchi di tufi e brecce latitiche. Grandi estensioni di castagneti e cenosi prative xeriche. Su affioramenti trachitici ad esposizione favorevole si sviluppa una boscaglia a leccio; sui rilievi più dolci con substrato di tipo sedimentario si sviluppano formazioni prative aride (Festuco-Brometalia). Presente la coltura della vite e dell'olivo. L'habitat 6210 è da considerarsi prioritario.

4.2 Quality and importance

Area importante per l'aspetto geomorfologico, botanico, geologico, zoologico. Complesso mosaico di tipi vegetazionali naturali in contatto con vaste aree colturali. Al castagneto che rappresenta il popolamento vegetazionale più diffuso, si sostituiscono, nelle aree più termofile, formazioni a pseudomacchia mediterranea con elevata presenza di specie rare e di rilevante interesse fitogeografico. Marsilea quadrifolia viene mantenuta nel FS come presenza potenziale.
