Khosrov Forest State Reserve pear ("Pyrus"), rowan ("Sorbus"). The southern steep sunny and dry slopes are covered by juniper sparse forests. Caucasian oak ("Quercus macranthera") forests can be found at an altitude of 1600–2300 m above sea level, which are rather dense in Khosrov district of the reserve known as "Trchnaberd". Oak forests are accompanied by ash ("Fraxinus excelsior", "Fraxinus rotundifolia"), rowan ("Sorbus aucuparia"), pear ("Pyrus"), maple ("Acer") and others. Bushes are abundant in the forests, represented by different species of wayfaring tree ("Viburnum lantana"), honeysuckle ("Lonicera"), rose ("Rosa"), hawthorn ("Crataegus"). The vegetation in the forests is rich in grass (family "Poaceae" L.). Mountainous
Forests of the Iberian Peninsula form small enclaves or copses at the foot of rocky cliff edges or in the clearings of beech forests, on poor or acidic soils, accompanied by aspen ("Populus tremula") and mountain ash ("Sorbus aucuparia"). Birch may also grow in pure stands near the beech forests, in the mountainous areas on siliceous bedrock; these areas are typically of only small extent and generally quite patchy with sessile oak ("Quercus petraea") and trees of the genus "Sorbus". The silver fir ("Abies alba") is found on the cool, deep-soiled slopes of the flanks of the Pyrenees, from Navarre to Montseny, forming pure fir
