Habitat
The distinctive species can grow in sparse grasslands on less developed rocky-sandy dolomitic soils. It is associated with Juniperus phoenicea, as a part of communities which are rich at endemic species, such as Rothmaleria granatensis, Helianthemum pannosum, Silene boryi, Convolvulus boissieri, Anthyllis tejedensis, Thymus granatensis, and Saxifraga erioblasta.[1]

gollark: Not yet, not yet...]
gollark: It seemed like such an innocent idea - embedding small radioisotope generators in SSDs so if the power fails they can continue writing from their buffers, or run routine maintenance tasks. But little did they know that some SSDs would explode when they hit end-of-life...
gollark: Randomly exploding *nuclear-powered* SSDs.
