Abstract
Long-term monitoring has been carried out to study the species diversity and ecological state of rare species of the Lipetsk region flora. The location of 8 endangered plant species has been established; their ecological state has been studied and described. A morphological assessment of the biological state of the detected species has been carried out. A complex of factors potentially inhibiting and limiting the development of the discovered plant populations has been determined. Most of the detected rare plant species are in a depressed state, which requires additional protection measures, constant annual monitoring of the found populations and species state, as well as reduction of various types of anthropogenic impact. It is also possible to organize cultivation of some species of rare flora in artificially created conditions for further reintroduction of relict species into their natural habitats. These efforts are necessary to preserve individual plant species and ecosystem biodiversity as a whole. Based on the research, a database has been developed.
