Senchilo O. Vegetation of the Dniper floodplain within the Forest-Steppe

The dissertation is dedicated to study the floristic and coenotic diversity of the floodplain of the forest-steppe Dniper. A complete syntaxonomic scheme for vegetation classification down to the level of association has been developed for the first time for our region based on the Braun-Blanquet system. Sixty associations beloning to 13 unions, 10 orders, and 6 classes have been identified. Their complete phytocoenotic (326 geobotanical descrip-tions) and synoptic tables have been plotted. An extended phytocoenotic, ecological, geographic, and biomor-phologic characteristics have been presented. Species in the Red Lists of Ukraine and Europe involved in the associations described have been registered
