title: Caloric content in plants dominating maquis ecosystems in Greece.
abstract: Caloric content for 15 evergreen sclerophyllous and 8 deciduous plants dominating maquis ecosystems are presented on dry and ash-free dry weight basis. Leaves of evergreen sclerophylls contain 4,667±61, bark 4,207±78 and wood 4,250±37 cal.g-1d.w. On ash-free basis values are: 5,959±57, 4,560±71 and 4,325±32 cal.g-1ash-free d.w., respectively. On deciduous plants results show that leaves, bark and wood contain 4,375±47, 4,128±151 and 4,278±59 cal.g-1d.w. respectively. Values on ash-free dry weight are: 4,719±39, 4,529±124 and 4,371±67 cal.g-1ash-free d.w.
