Vegetation Refugia is a biogeographical concept denoting a localized habitat area where plant species persist during periods of unfavorable regional climatic conditions, particularly in glacial phases of the Pleistocene, due to the presence of microclimatic or topographic stability that distinguishes it from surrounding uninhabitable environments.
