Shares of diagnostic species of different vegetation classes in the syntaxa of thermophilous oak forests_ Groups A, B, and C correspond to those identified by the cluster analysis (Figure 1)_ Syntaxa numbers are the same as in Table S1_ Designations of the vegetation classes: PUB – Quercetea pubescentis, FAG – Carpino-Fagetea, QUE – Quercetea robori-petraeae, BRA – Brachypodio-Betuletea pendulae, FES – Festuco-Brometea, GER – Trifolio-Geranietea, MOL – Molinio-Arrhenatheretea, RHA – Crataego-Prunetea_
