2011-10-26 Lower Austria, district Neunkirchen - mixed forest (670 msm Quadrant 8362/4).Pinus nigra is not native to this habitat (and neither is Picea abies), and Pinus sylvestris only would grow here in small numbers (as it is less competitive here than e. g. beech): this should be a beech forest by habitat, and there are indeed a few beeches present.

2011-12-25 Upper Austria, district Rohrbach - Ameisberg region (750 msm Quadrant 7448/2).Fagus sylvatica only is marginally present here, most common in this habitat is Picea abies (young growth to the left, background with older ones), fostered by forestry, as well as native Abies alba.

2011-11-01 Styria, district Hartberg - Joglland, Hundsmhlbach (690 msm Quadrant 8562/1).Mixed forest: spruce obviously has been introduced (but could also be native to the habitat - only not in such numbers as it occurs here), originally this should be a ravine forest where fir and beech are native.Of course there are also some other trees to be seen here, or (mostly) their leaves: Alnus glutinosa, Corylus avellana, Ulmus glabra, but here for a change only very few Acer pseudoplatanus (of which there are plenty further up and down the stream).

2013-01-20 Vienna, district XVI. - Gallitzinberg = Wilhelminenberg = PredigtstuhlGerman name: Rot-Buche
Fagus sylvatica trees also dominate the background, with only a very few other tree species mixed in (especially but not only
Carpinus betulus).Not even natives know which name of this hill is the 'proper' one,
says German Wiki - which is also my personal experience, all three names are used.This is the region mostly affected by
sleety rain some weeks ago.Nicht einmal die Einheimischen sind sich sicher, welcher der drei Namen fr diesen Berg der "richtige" ist, heisst es
in der deutschen Wiki - und das passt zu meiner persnlichen Erfahrung, alle drei Namen sind in lebendigem Gebrauch.Das ist brigens auch jener Hhenzug, der vom
gefrierenden Regen von vor einigen Wochen am strksten betroffen war - Spuren davon kann man immer noch im Wald finden.
