Warm Subpolar Belt: Screes.
Although the formation is extremely open and with a poor representation of species, nevertheless the following are frequently plentiful. Claytonia australasica, Juncus antarcticus, Oreomyrrhis andicola and Cardamine heterophylla. Ourisia caespitosa and Geum parviflorum are occasionally present, and not infrequently Ranunculus insignis, with a few other plants from the neighbouring watercourses, obtains a footing on screes.
