Results of a phytosociological study in a Juncus squarrosus and Nardus stricta dominant community in Piedmont (NW Italy) are herein presented. The vegetation study has been performed throught 7 phytosociological relevés. The Nardo-Juncion squarrosi alliance is herein described for the first time in Italy and in general in the Southern slope of the Alps. Fisionomical, syntaxonomical and syndinamical data were described in the paper. The studied community plays an interesting role from the vegetational and phytogeographical point of view, as the results of the migration in the Southern Alps of the Nardo-Juncion squarrosi alliance during the Quaternary glaciation phases. Some guidelines for grazing management are also reported with the purpose of conserving the coenosis.
