Selevenj heath
Selevenj heath or Selevenjske pustare is a Pannonian heath type reserve in the Kanjiža and Subotica municipalities in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina in Serbia. The reserve with an area of 6.77 km2 has never been urbanised and is protected as a special nature reserve. It consists of areas criss-crossed with orchards, fields and vineyards and is primarily used for botanical conservation.[1]
