Resumo

Phytosociological characteristics of chasmophitic communities on subalpine serpentine cliff s of Kopaonik Mountain were analysed according to Braun-Blanquet methodology. In order to detect purely fl oristic diff erentiation of analysed communities we applied ordinary Correspondence Analysis (CA). Relationship between vegetation and environment was assessed using the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA), while classifi cation of sites was performed using UPGMA method and chord distance. All analyses were performed using the latest version of the “FLORA” package. According to fl oristic and ecological characteristics, analysed chasmophitic communities on serpentine cliff s of Kopaonik Mountain is divided in three new associations: Edraiantho jugoslaviciFestucetum pancicianae ass. nova, Silenetum serbicae ass. nova and Musco-Jovibarbetum kopaonikense ass. nova.
