| Summary: | The author presents phytosociological variation in Polish beech forests contrasting it with the hitherto applied division of the Fagion alliance. According to the traditional view, the Eu-Fagion suballiance is represented by three associations. The author discusses their syntaxonomic status in relation to the proposed division of the suballiance into three equivalent units. Assuming such an attitude casts some doubt on the systematic status of the fertile Sudeten beech forest (Dentario enneaphylli-Fagetum). The author presents arguments for including the association into the Carpathian suballiance of Dentario glandulosae-Fagenion instead of the Illyrian Lonicero alpigenae- Fagenion. |
