Abstract
The authors deal with a remarkable botanic site of Limousin : the Piof fray peat bog (Haute-Vienne district). The successively depict its dif ferent sides related to its floristic compound; then, they stress its originality which lies in the joint presence of boreal and atlantic fl orae. This phytogeographic feature stems both from a rather low altitu de and from the western setting of the Monts de Blond hills in relatio n to the Massif Central.
