The ecological analysis of the species showed that 39% are mezophytes, 57% are micromezotherms and 34 % are neutrophyls. As for the soil reaction, 34 % of the species are neutrophils, the acid-neutrophyls have registered a percentage of 28%. 15 % of the species are amfitolerant. The processing of the bioforms indicator has revealed the highest percentage in the megaphanerophytes (72%) while 26% represents the microphanerophytes. The nanophanerophytes species represent 4%.
