ABSTRACT

In this chapter, the characteristic of botanico-geographical subprovinces of Upper Dnieper basin within the Russian Federation on the basis of data on the distribution of forest vegetation syntaxa established by J. BraunBlanquet is done. The borders of allocated subprovinces largely correspond to the boundaries of communities of the alliance rank with a set of specific associations and subassociations and areas of some tree edificators. The groups of a differential species for the four subprovinces are detected.
