Abstract: In this paper is presented a priority habitat (40A0* Subcontinental peri-Pannonic scrub) that can be found in Grädijtea Muncelului Cioclovina Natural Park. This natural habitat has a favorable status of conservation in the entire area from the park, its phytocoenoses being mentioned since 1974 (Bojcaiu et Peterfi) from Crivadia Gorges.

Keywords: habitat, conservation, Gradi^tea Muncelului Cioclovina Natural Park

Introduction

The coenoses of this habitat are characteristic to the Pannonian bioregion and immediately adjacent areas (Central and South-eastern Europa). There are saxicolous, xero-mesophilous, thermophilous and calcicolous coenoses that sheltered endemic, rare and endangered species. Gafta et Mountford (2008) mentions some plant associations characteristic to this habitat that are founded in our country, as follows: Calamagrostio-Spiraeetum ulmifoliae Resmeripi et Csűrös 1966; Spiraeetum crenatae Morariu et Ularu 1981; Syringo-Genistetum radiatae Malo§ 1972; Asplenio-Syringetum vulgaris Jakucs et Vida 1959; Carici humilis-Sorbetum dacicae Gergely 1962; Corno-Fraxinetum orni Pop et Hodisan 1964; Syringo-Fraxinetum orni Borza 1958 em. Resmeripl 1972; Prunetum tenellae Soó 1947; Prunetum fruticosae Dziubaltowski 1926; Syringo- Carpinetum orientalis Jakucs 1959; Alno incanae-Syringetum josikaeae (Borza 1965) Rapu et al. 1984; Evonymo-Prunetum spinosae (Hueck 1931) Tx. 1952 em. Pass, et Hoffim. 1968.

Material and methods

The assessment of the conservation status for 40A0* habitat was realized based on the phytosociological surveys in 2015 by trained personnel of the Park Administration. Also some data were taken from the management plan made by a scientific team of the project “Integrated management plan revision Grädipea Muncelului Cioclovina Natural Park ROSCI0087 and ROSPA0045, codSMIS-CNSR 4749”.
