The occurrence of thermophilous mollusks on Svalbard during the Holocene and their paleoclimatic implications. From Wordnik.com. [Arctic climate variability prior to 100 years BP] Reference
As we have seen, thermophilous bacteria can grow at high temperatures, and it has long been known that some forms develop on ice. From Wordnik.com. [Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 3, Part 1, Slice 2 "Baconthorpe" to "Bankruptcy"] Reference
The ecoregion includes the sub-Mediterranean subcontinental thermophilous bitter oak forests, montane to altimontane beech and mixed beech forests, and oro-Mediterranean pine forests of southern Italy south of Naples. From Wordnik.com. [South Appenine mixed montane forests] Reference
Modifications and additions consist of including the hygro-thermophilous mixed deciduous broadleaf forests (and portions of swamp forests) in the eastern sections of the ecoregion as well as an area of the montane Black Sea unit in European Turkey. From Wordnik.com. [Euxine-Colchic deciduous forests] Reference
In the rest of the region thermophilous plant species occur mostly in open and semi-open habitats created by traditional ways of land-use (grazing and burning), and are now largely threatened either by secondary forest succession or by ongoing afforestation works. From Wordnik.com. [Central European mixed forests] Reference
The herbaceous layer normally includes many species that also characterize the moist conifer mountain forests, and some other endemic and more thermophilous taxa, such as Cyclamen africanum, Acanthus mollis, Gallium elipticum, Vicia atlantica, Saxifraga atlantica, and Myosotis collina. From Wordnik.com. [Mediterranean conifer and mixed forests] Reference
Another distinct feature of the flora of the Central European mixed forests is the presence of thermophilous plant species typical of warmer and drier habitats, particularly in the south-eastern part of the ecoregion, which borders the forest-steppe zone of Ukraine, Moldova and Romania. From Wordnik.com. [Central European mixed forests] Reference
The thermophilous species already alluded to may be described as perhaps the type of the genus, the L. saccharina being simpler in its structure. From Wordnik.com. [Our Common Insects A Popular Account of the Insects of Our Fields, Forests, Gardens and Houses] Reference
(especially the thermophilous Lepisma, which we now describe) are most readily compared with those of the larva of Perla. From Wordnik.com. [Our Common Insects A Popular Account of the Insects of Our Fields, Forests, Gardens and Houses] Reference
The forest understory composition is mainly characterized by very thermophilous shrubs species, which also characterise seral scrub communities: Calycotome infesta, Rhus pentaphylla, Lavandula dentata, Periploca angustifolia, Globularia alypum, Cistus clusii, C. monspeliensis, C. munbyi, Genista tricuspidata, G. erioclada, Cytisus arboreus, Rosmarinus officinalis, Ceratonia siliqua, Quercus coccifera, and Erica multiflora.

The most important protected protected areas areas in Azarbaijan part of this ecoregion are: the Gizil-Agach strict nature reserve (88,400 hectares (ha) wetlands and marine area, designated to protect waterfowl), the Zuvand conservation area (15,000 ha, mountain meadows and forests, designated to protect game birds, bear, leopard, and rare reptiles), and the Girkan strict nature reserve (3,000 ha, humid thermophilous Hyrcanian forests, designated to protect the unique plant communities rich in relic and endemic species).
