From a geological report:
"I terreni appartenenti al *Complesso Flyschioide* costituiscono la media montagna e la collina lucana, oltre a colmare la nota depressione tettonica della “Fossa Bradanica”. Il Complesso Calcareo-Dolomitico costituisce l’alta montagna lucana posta nel settore occidentale al confine con la Regione Campania."
I did find "Flyschioid" being used, but mostly in documents (in English) originating from Italy.
All suggestions are welcome.
