Three of them are representative of a particular phytogeographical region: the Pavlov Hills of the Pannonian, the National Park Podyjí of the Hercynian and the Bílé Karpaty Mts. of the Carpathian region. Other remarkable features, such as meadow and forest vegetation of continental floodplains near the confluence of the Morava and Dyje Rivers and sand dunes near the town of Hodonín are also covered. The Milovická stráň Nature Reserve represents an example of Pannonian flora and vegetation on soft Tertiary bedrock and loess.
