Abstract
The situation of the Aninei Mountains in the South-Western part of Romania, at the interference of air masses with maritime (of Western origin), continental (of Eastern origin) and Southern character (coming across the Mediterranean Sea), as well as the carstic relief conferred by the calcareous geologic substrate, account for the floristic peculiarities of this region, containing numerous rare and characteristic Banatian elements. The European, Southern and Eastern influences are expressed in the diversified floristic composition of the pastures, where xerophile and xeromezophile species prevail. A pecularity of the researched area is represented by the calcophile vegetation of the xerophilic pastures. In the floristic composition, we were able to identify several sporadic species in Romania.
