It can be still higher in other locations with more moisture in western Caucasus and Abkhazia. Sessile oak (Quercus petraea), oriental hornbeam (Carpinus orientalis) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) predominately grow on dry southern slopes. The uppermost forest zone mainly occupied by Caucasian downy birch (Betula pubescens) and European rowan (Sorbus aucuparia). The forest floor is fairly clear.
