"The Mountain Zone (Mainly Falling Within The Core Zone) Is Generally Referred To As The "Beech Belt" But On Etna, Where The Beech Is At The Extreme Southern Limit Of Its Distribution Range, It Is Spread In A Very Fragmentary Way. The Present Beech Woods On Etna Can, In Fact, Be Considered Relicts Of The Much Bigger Formations Which Were Widespread In The Post Glacial Period When The Climate Was Colder And Wetter. (...) These Beech Forests In Mount Etna Reach The Highest Altitudes Ever Recorded In Europe, And At The Same Time They Represent The Most Southern Location (The Lowest Latitude)."
