ecotone

An ecotone is a transition area between two biological communities, where two communities meet and integrate. It may be narrow or wide, and it may be local (the zone between a field and forest) or regional (the transition between forest and grassland ecosystems). An ecotone may appear on the ground as a gradual blending of the two communities across a broad area, or it may manifest itself as a sharp boundary line. This area is generally very rich in biodiversity as it contains species specific to the transitional environment but also species belonging to each of the bordering ecosystems.
