Italian term or phrase: alneti
Tipo di boschi che si trovano nelle pianure fluviali:
""...canneti a cannuccia di palude e cariceti sulle sponde che lasciano spazio a fasce di bosco igrofilo (saliceti ed alneti) nelle zone più affrancate dall’acqua. Quella descritta sarebbe la successione ideale, anche se in questi ultimi anni si è assistito ad una profonda alterazione della comunità vegetale che, ad oggi, appare molto semplificata e con un minor numero di specie rispetto al passato soprattutto per la sua componente più strettamente acquatica."

La definizione di alneto:
"È un’associazione vegetale del piano subalpino che si estende lungo i pendii franosi e i coni detritici dei versanti esposti a nord, ricchi di umidità o lungo le rive dei corsi d'acqua. La specie principale è l’Ontano verde (Alnus viridis), un arbusto che può arrivare fino a tre metri di altezza, riuscendo anche a coprire grandi superfici rendendole quasi impenetrabili. "
