About this book

Language: French

The Morvan is a region of Burgundy in east-central France with a strong character. It retains the image of a territory still wild. Mountainous land, this crystalline massif is a small mountain with a cold and humid climate. For a long time, nature and landscapes have had to adapt to human activities.

Suffering from the destruction of certain ecological habitats, clearing and drainage, flora and fauna have sometimes been forced to severe entrenchments to make room for the colonizing actions of men. The climatic characteristics and the acidity of the soils have nevertheless allowed the maintenance of exciting and original plant associations. The Morvan has preserved rare environments such as peat bogs, real relics of the ice ages. This flora of Morvan describes and illustrates 625 species.

Summary in French:
Le Morvan est une contrée de Bourgogne au caractère bien trempé. Il conserve l’image d’un territoire encore sauvage. Terre montagnarde, ce massif cristallin est bien une petite montagne où règne un climat froid et humide. Depuis longtemps, la nature et les paysages ont dû s’adapter aux activités humaines.

Souffrant de la destruction de certains habitats écologiques, du défrichement et du drainage, flore et faune ont parfois été forcées à de sévères retranchements pour laisser place aux actions colonisatrices des hommes. Les particularités climatiques et l’acidité des sols ont pourtant permis le maintien d’associations végétales passionnantes et originales. Le Morvan a su conserver des milieux rares comme ses tourbières, véritables reliques des périodes glaciaires. Cette flore du Morvan est là pour livrer modestement aux promeneurs et aux amoureux du pays un peu de ses secret.
