Abstract

In the 1920s creation of nature monuments and reserves was based on the identification of typical and unique botanically representative sites of wild nature. This work involved a wide range of ethnographers, biologists, foresters and teachers. For these purposes, a collection of herbarium specimens was organized, following by analysis undertaken by skillful botanists in Kharkiv, which was at that time not only the Ukrainian SSR center, but also the key point in organization of nature conservation work. The study of herbariua preserved from that times makes it possible to understand how the environmental work was organized, as well as to compare the flora of the reserves at that time with its state today.
