Ecological-systematic analysis of medicinal plants of floristic complexes of the middle reaches of the Khoper River

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that a component of any flora are groups of plants that are intensively exploited by humans. These are medicinal, food, feed and other resource groups. During the research, 200 species of medicinal plants were identified, and a systematic analysis showed that they belong to 57 families and 152 genera. Medicinal plants have a wide range of morphological forms from annual ephemera and perennial ephemeroids to lianas and evergreens. According to the longitudinal-latitudinal spectrum, they were divided into 24 geographic elements. Medicinal flora is divided into 7 groups of economically valuable species, including rare (33 species) and regional endemics.
