At least “talus” seems the most appropriate way translate “Blockhalden” [literally meaning “block waste dumps”] but I might note that in Cactus (Paris), Ritter 1966 gave “Rocky hills” and in-habitat pictures of similar Trichs commonly show them growing in demi-mountainous terrain strewn with boulders. Ritter may have been referring to this type of country.
