Name: Dry Miombo Macrogroup
Reference: NatureServe Biotics 2019
Description: Dry miombo is similar to the wetter miombo but with 600 to 800 mm mean annual precipitation and therefore less vegetation structure and diversity. It lies mostly to the south and east of the wet miombo. Like the wet miombo, it occupies part of the Central African Plateau and its scarpments, though the dry miombo reaches further in the lowlands with extensive areas between 200-800 m elevation in Mozambique. Besides the dominant <i>Brachystegia spiciformis</i> and <i>Julbernardia globiflora</i>, other common tree species include <i>Uapaca kirkiana, Brachystegia boehmii, Monotes glaber, Faurea saligna, Faurea speciosa, Combretum molle, Albizia antunesiana, Strychnos spinosa, Strychnos cocculoides, Flacourtia indica</i>, and <i>Vangueria infausta</i>.
