ResumoThe summer dry, winter wet climates (Mediterranean) of the world are located in five disjunct areas which generally lie on the west sides of continents between latitudes of 30° to 40° (Fig. 1). All of these areas have vegetations dominated by evergreen sclerophyllous shrubs and trees, and with annuals and herbaceous perennials as additional important vegetation components (Specht, 1969; Mooney and Dunn, 1970; di Castri and Mooney, 1973).
