Cryophyte Steppe (Arctic Tundra): Cryophytes are plants adapted to extremely cold environments. The Arctic Tundra is a biome characterized by such cold-resistant vegetation.
World Floral Regions (Adolf Engler): Adolf Engler was a German botanist who pioneered the classification of the world into distinct floral regions or phytogeographic kingdoms.
Puszta Grassland (Hungary): The Puszta is a temperate grassland (steppe) region located in the Great Hungarian Plain of Hungary.
