The geology is dominated by\u00a0Arnstadt formations and Rhaet of the Trias as well as psilonotic layers and sandstones of Luxembourg from the Jura.<\/p>\n<p>The region is flown through by the Black Ernz as well as by the White Ernz and presents valleys with pastures or humid\u00a0meadows. The hills of the region are mostly less vigorous and profound, which explains that calcareous grassland still can be found here. These areas are quite often still managed in an extensive way as well as other tending strategies for the preservation\u00a0of calcareous grassland are done. Because of the important biodiversity, both flora and fauna, the territory is important. Many bats, butterflies, orthopters, spiders, bugs, harriers, woodpeckers as well as the red-backed shrike find a adequate living space in this area. The same is the case for many plants, like the meadow sage, campanulas, juniper, gentian and 20 orchid species, amongst others different species of the genus\u00a0<em>Ophrys<\/em>, can be found in the region.<\/p>\n<p>The habitat of calcareous grassland is very typical for the region around Junglinster, which explains the importance of the preservation and the improvement of this type of biotope. The calcareous grassland and the juniper formations represent, because of their central geographic position, an important connection between the dry grasslands in the East with the ones in the South and the West of the country. The more, the region shows the northern border of the distribution area of some mediterranean dry grassland species. By\u00a0the report of protection areas, \u00a0with well adapted management, \u00a0scrub invasion or forestation of\u00a0calcareous grassland could be limited. Because many surfaces are threatened in their good condition\u00a0the elaboration of management\u00a0plans for the scrub removal followed by pasturing is very important.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_655\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-655\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/life-orchis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DJI_0188-e1476790891201.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-655 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/life-orchis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/DJI_0188-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"DCIM100MEDIADJI_0188.JPG\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-655\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dry grassland on &#8216;Scheddelbierg&#8217;<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n<p>The region of Junglinster is situated in the center of Luxembourg, in the cuesta landscape of the Gutland.
