Science - Geography / Północna Brazylia
English term or phrase: shrubland
jest to wyschnięty rodzaj buszu w północnej Brazylii w byłym stanie Pernambuco. Po portugalski caatinga. Busz kojarzy mi się raczej z Afryką i Australią. Czy takie tereny w Ameryce mają jakąś własną nazwę?
mww

Explanation:
Caatinga to caatinga :) Dlatego proponuję zostać przy terminie źródłowym.
Ewentualnie sawanna kolczasta, jak ma być ogólniej.
