Abstract:

The wall flora and vegetation of Qal'at Nimrud (QaTat es Subeibe), a medieval ruin on the western spurs of Mt. Hermon, were analyzed. Although the flora is dominated by plants characteristic of rocks, batha and forest, it contains a relatively high proportion of ruderals and weeds; accordingly, therophytes are most abundant, followed by hemi- cryptophytes and phanerophytes. The vegetation consists of two associations, the more mesic Parietaria judaica subassociation of HYOSCYAMETUM AUREI, grading into the more xeric DlANTHETUM PENDULI with Parietaria lusltanica, which is described here for the first time. Pistacia palaestina and Phagnalon rupestre are accompanying species with high percentage presence. © 1985 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
