This is a low-growing, species-poor vegetation type dominated by Chenopodium vulvaria, which is accompanied by species adapted to trampling. It is confined to those places in villages and towns that are enriched in nutrients by dung-water input, such as near sunny bases of walls or tree trunks in settlements or in city lawns used for dog walking. Soils are usually base-rich. The phenological optimum of this vegetation type is in mid-summer and early autum. It occurs in warm lowland areas of the Czech Republic.
