Abstract

The phytosociological and phytoecological features of the vegetation of Ulubey Canyon in Uşak (Turkey) were investigated. The vegetation of the area was analysed by Braun-Blanquet method. Two new associations from forest and shrub vegetation were determined. The nomenclatural, floristical, and ecological features of the identified associations were evaluated. The associations and their higher syntaxa are as below: Quercetea-Pubescentis Doing-Kraft ex Scamoni and Passarage 1959 Querco-Cedretalia libani Barbéro, Loisel and Quézel 1974.
