Les températures conventionnelles qui limitent les domaines ou «étages» thermiques ne sont pas universellement admises. [...] En outre il faut prendre garde aux traquenards terminologiques. L'hypothermal des Européens - qui correspond au katathermal de Schneiderhorn - ne correspond pas à l'hypothermal des Américains. En général ceux-ci n'individualisent pas les pneumatolytiques et leurs hypothermaux correspondent donc à nos hypothermaux et pneumatolytiques réunis. 3, record 1, French, - hypothermal
