Tichoukt mountain is covered by three main kinds of ecosystems : • Forest and matorral ecosystems: dominant species are Quercus rotundifolia (holm oak), Cedrus atlantica (cedar of Atlas), Juniperus phoenicea (red juniper), J. thurifera (thuriferous juniper), J. communis subsp. hemisphaerica (common juniper), Berberis hispanica, Crataegus laciniata. • Spiny xerophytic ecosystem with Cytisus balansae, Bupleurum spinosum, Erinacea anthyllis, Alyssum spinosum... • Rocky (or rupicolous) ecosystem with Ephedra major, Lonicera pyrenaica, Rhamnus atlantica, Globularia liouvillei, Saxifraga longifolia, Aethionema saxatile... The flora is valued at more than 184 species with a remarkable number of rare, threatened and / or endemic species. To give an overview on the flora distribution in the BEIS, localities of species sampled are provided with detailled geographical coordinates for the endemic and/or rare ones.
