'''Garrigue''' or '''garigue''' ({{IPAc-en|ɡ|ə|ˈ|r|iː|ɡ}} {{respell|gə|REEG}}), also known as '''phrygana''' ({{lang-el|φρύγανα}} {{IPA-el|ˈfriɣana|}}, [[neuter gender|n.]] [[plural|pl., Greek Φρύγανα]]),<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.archive.org/stream/conspectusflora06halgoog/conspectusflora06halgoog_djvu.txt|title = Conspectus florae graecae|year = 1901}}</ref> is a type of low, [[scrubland]] [[ecoregion]] and [[plant community]] in the [[Mediterranean forests, woodlands, and scrub]] [[biome]].
 
It is found on [[limestone]] soils in [[southern France]] and around the [[Mediterranean Basin]], generally near the seacoast where the moderated [[Mediterranean climate]] provides annual summer [[drought]]. It is an anthropogenic [[Forest degradation|degradation]]/ and [[Ecological succession|succession]] form of former [[evergreen]] oak forests that existed until 4500around 2500 years BC.<ref>{{cite web

UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre described garrigue as "discontinuous bushy associations of the Mediterranean [[calcareous]] [[plateau]]s, which have relatively [[alkaline soil]]s. It is often composed of [[kermes oak]], [[lavender]], [[thyme]], and white [[cistus]]. There may be a few isolated trees."<ref>[http://www.unep-wcmc.org/forest/eu_gap/Technical%20Report.pdf UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre, "European Forests and Protected Areas: Gap Analysis", 2000] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929124258/http://www.unep-wcmc.org/forest/eu_gap/Technical%20Report.pdf |date=2007-09-29 }} (pdf file)</ref><ref>Renault, J.-M.

Garrigue is discontinuous with widely spaced bush associations with open spaces, and is often extensive. It is associated with limestone and base rich soils, and calcium associated plants.

==Similar ecoregions==
''Garrigue'' is a common general word for the shrubland [[habitat]] [[ecosystem]]s in southern France along with [[Maquis shrubland|maquis]], which are known elsewhere in the [[Mediterranean region]] as [[matorral]] and ''tomillarestomillar'' in Spain, [[macchia]] in Italy, ''phrygana'' in Greece, ''garig'' in Croatia, and ''batha'' in [[Palestine (region)|Palestine]] or ''horesh'' in [[Israel]].
 
In [[California chaparral and woodlands|California]] a similar Mediterranean climate [[ecoregion]] is named [[chaparral]]; in [[Chile]] it is named the [[Chilean Matorral|matorral]]; in [[South Africa]] it is named [[fynbos]]; and in [[Australia]] it is named [[Mallee Woodlands and Shrublands|mallee]]. All are in the Mediterranean forests, woodlands, and scrub biome.
Line 45 ⟶ 47:
Both garrigue and maquis are associated with the [[Mediterranean climate]] within the [[Mediterranean region]]. However, the distinction is not clear and term use is inconsistent.
 
[[Maquis shrubland]] is broadly similar to garrigue, but the vegetation is more densedenser, being composed of numerous closely spaced shrubs. Maquis is associated with siliceous (acid) soils, unlike the relatively alkaline [[calcareous]] soils of the garrigue. Its plant communities are often suites associated with [[Quercus rotundifolia|holm oak]]. [[Calcifuges]] such as ''[[Erica (plant)|Erica]]'' and ''[[Calluna]]'' are present in the maquis [[ecoregion]].

==Origin of the word==
First cited in the [[French language|French]] in 1546, the singular word ''garrigue'' is borrowed from the [[Provençal dialect of Occitan|Provençal]] ''garriga,'' equivalent to [[oldOld French]] ''jarrie.''. Etymologist Oscar Bloch states thatThe itterm is most likely related to the[[Gascon dialect|Gascon]] {{lang|oc|carroc}}, meaning ''"rock''" and to the[[Swiss German|Germanic Swiss]] ''Karren,'', a kind of [[sedimentary rock]]. These related words could stemderive from a supposed source such as ''*carra,'' or ''"rock,''" which could beperhaps a remnant of a pre-LatinRoman language, to judge from its geographic distribution even before Celtic times, and possibly akin to [[Basque language|Basque]] ''*karr-'', ''harri'', '"rock'."<ref>Bloch, Oscar, ''Dictionnaire étymologique de la langue française,'' p. 275.</ref> It is thought that Gallic[[Gaulish]] and then [[Latin]] incorporatedappear theseto wordshave andborrowed then''*carra'', transmittedwhich themevolved ininto variousits formsmodern todescendants thein [[Romance languages]].<ref>Bloch, Oscar: "Garrigue," page 270, ''Dictionnaire Etymologique,'' Paris, 1950</ref>
