Summary: | A list of the synanthropic flora restricted to the thorny dry s
crub on serpentine (known as cuabal)
in Motembo, Villa Clara, Central Cuba is given. Taxonomical wor
k was based on the criteria of several studies
conducted by researchers in 1990 and 1995 in addition to base t
hemselves studies in 2001 and 2002. As a
result, 104 infrageneric taxa behaving as synanthropic elements
are reported; among these, 15 are new reports.
Thymopsis thymoides var. polyantha
is outstanding; it is a local endemic classified as intrapophy tes.str. Thedefinite apophytism of the Cuban synanthropic flora is also obvious in the serpentine area of Motembo; 94
synanthropic taxa occur in this ecosystem |
