Bromus Sterilis F. Ponticus

Pontic bromus, scientifically known as Bromus sterilis f. ponticus, is a rare and lesser-known grass species native to the Pontic region of Europe. It thrives in specific ecological niches, often found in disturbed soils and along the edges of forests. This plant is characterized by its slender stems and small, spike-like inflorescences that distinguish it from other bromus species. Due to habitat loss and limited distribution, it is considered vulnerable and requires conservation efforts. Its unique morphology and ecological role make it an important subject for botanical study and environmental preservation.
