Italian term

pendio stillicidioso

Italian to English Science Geology
Questa specie si può trovare in paludi mesotrofiche, lungo fiumi, in affossamenti del terreno e su pendii stillicidiosi.

Seeping slopes può andare? Non ho trovato tantissimi risultati, ma qualcosa c'è.

Grazie

well-drained slope

This is the term you're looking for, I think.

I don't know which "species" the source sentence is talking about, so it's best that I'll leave the googling to you. Here is a random example sentence:

This well-drained slope is one of only a very few places within the park which exactly meets the needs of the teddy-bear cholla.

trickling slope

Lo stillicidio è la caduta o lo sgocciolamento dell'acqua per effetto della forza di gravità. Esso non è una vera e propria precipitazione, poiché il volume di acqua non è intenso e nemmeno ha un flusso costante (come invece avviene per le cascate), ma è solitamente costituito da flussi irregolari.

Note from asker:
Lo stillicidio è esattamente quello che hai descritto tu Lucrezia, però googlando ci sono pochissimi risultati con trickling.
