Cres

Approximately 50% of Cres territory is covered with dry grassy fields and rocky areas. These are eroded areas of the Euro-Mediterranean evergreen belt and of the deciduous sub-Mediterranean belt from which (because of the influence of man and other factors) forest and underbrush vegetation has been completely wiped out. They have the appereance of barren wastelands, overgrown with a specific pasturage vegetation consisting mainly of herbaceous plants and low semibush.
