[EN]: The three main landscapes in W an SW Spain: "monte" (shrubland), "dehesa" (grassland with scattered trees) and "ribera" (riparian vegetation) are connected in a functional way forming a repetitive pattern. The traditional land use management of this system is considered with special reference to the game. The Guadalupejo River basin (Cáceres and Badajoz provinces) has been selected as study unit. Its main biotope characteristics are described together with vegetation types: shrub, grassland and riparian vegetation. These types are shown as results of the interaction between lithology, geomorphology, pedology and man management with the potential vegetation, under mediterranean climate conditions. The "monte-dehesa-ribera" system forms a network of diverse habitats that differ in structure, stability and productivity. Game faune integrates their explotation on space and time in a complementary way over the year. this strategy is specially favourable under the highly fluctuating conditions prevaling under mediterranean climates.
[ES]: Se estudia el sistema complejo monte-dehesa-ribera como unidad funcional, recurrente en el paisaje del Oeste y Suroeste de la Península Ibérica. La explotación tradicional de los recursos naturales de este sistema incluye, de modo destacado, el aprovechamiento cinegético. La cuenca del río Guadalupejo (Cáceres-Badajoz), elegida como unidad de estudio, se describe según las características del medio físico y la vegetación. La estructura de los principales tipos de vegetación: matorral, pastizal adehesado y bosque galerías, resultan de la interacción, en clima mediterráneo, entre la litología-geomorfología-edafología-manejo y la vegetación potencial. El sistema monte-dehesa-ribera constituye un complejo de hábitats diversificado en estructura, estabilidad y productividad, que es utilizado complementariamente en espacio y tiempo por la fauna cinegética: estrategia especialmente favorable en las condiciones altamente fluctuantes del clima mediterráneo.
