Abstract

The Zákány Hills are situated along the Dráva River in southwestern Hungary, where I collected 10 vegetation samples and studied the phytosociological characteristics of the riparian hardwood forest (Knautio drymeiae-Ulmetum). Its strongly fragmented stands occur primarily on the riverside foothills, where the thick gravel deposit is covered with a shallow layer of loess. These forest fragments are in contact most often with alder gallery forests (Carici pendulae-Alnetum) and oak hornbeam forests (Anemoni trifoliae-Carpinetum). The stands host some herbaceous species (Anemone trifolia, Lamium orvala) that occur nowhere else in the country and indicate sub-Mediterranean and Illyrian influences.
