The stony desert is commonly referred to as a "stony desert" or "stony plateau." These arid regions are characterized by a surface covered with small, loose stones and minimal vegetation, often resulting from erosion processes. One notable example is the "Hamada," a type of stony desert found in North Africa and the Middle East. Such landscapes can be inhospitable for most forms of life due to their harsh conditions.
