Saline puszta

[Festuca pseudovina] swards of the slightly elevated natron shoulders and low benches of the Pannonic puszta, on saline but permanently dry soils with a thin humic layer. Together with the low-lying rills that score them, they constitute the main landscape of the saline Pannonian steppes; the formations of unit 15.A111 constitute the centre group of communities, those of unit 15.A113 mostly compose intermediate belts between these and the bare or sparsely vegetated rills, those of units 15.A112 and 15.A114 are edaphically or geographically limited variants, that of unit 15.A116 is both transitional to rill vegetation and geographically limited. The communities of unit 15.A115 comprise the transitions between the saline pusztas and saline steppe-forests.
