Ecological-cenotic analysis of the flora of the north-western part of the Altai-Sayan floristic province

Abstract

The results of an ecological-cenotic analysis of the flora of the northwestern part of the Altai-Sayan Province are presented. Approximately 30 cenotic elements, united in 10 prime ecological-cenotic groups, were identified The distribution of ecological-cenotic groups and cenotic elements within 13 botanical-geographical districts of the investigated region was analyzed. Taking into account the distribution of ecological-cenotic groups by districts, a conclusion on the predominantly forest character of the fl ora was made.
