Abstract
The scrub, forest, and steppe vegetation of the Kızılırmak valley situated between Kepez gorge and Devrez stream was investigated based on the traditional Braun-Blanquet method, and mainly new associations and subassociations were identified and classified. The syntaxonomic scheme was as follows: Quercetea ilicis Br.-Bl. ex A. de Bolòs Y Vayreda 1950 Quercetalia ilicis Br.-Bl. 1947 1-Cotino coggyriae-Pinetum brutiae ass. nova 2-Buxo sempervirentis-Arbutetum unedonis Karaer et al. 2010 3-Spiraeo crenatae-Oleetum sylvestris Karaer et al. 2010 4-Rubo sancti-Viticetum agni-casti ass. nova Quercetea pubescentis Doing-Kraft ex Scamoni & Passarage 1959 Querco cerridis-Carpinetalia orientalis Akman, Quézel & Barbéro 1980 Carpino betuli-Acerion hyrcani Quézel, Barbéro & Akman 1978 5-Corno mari-Quercetum cerridis ass. nova loniceretosum etrusco subass. nova lathyretosum rosei subass. nova 6-Trifolio canescentis-Pinetum caramanicae ass. nova 7-Galio odorati-Fagetum orientalis Özen & Kılınç 2002 abietetosum bornmuellerianae subass. nova vicietosum croceo subass. nova 8-Rumi scutati-Pinetum hamatae ass. nova Astragalo microcephali-Brometea tomentelli Quézel 1973 em.
