Abstract

The main objetives in this research is to determine vegetational diversity along the transect carried out on the south side of S' de Los Filabres, localiced in southeastern of Iberian Peninsula, from 800 m to the top. Samples were taken at 100 m intervals throughout the transect under study. Further, several climatic and bioclimatic parameters collected at every height station, have been brought into relationship
