Abstract

As a result of long standing research, 116 species from 88 genera of 36 families of vascular plants have been registered on the territory of the “Cape Plaka” nature monument. A preliminary analysis of the systematic, geographic and biomorphological structure of the flora was carried out, which showed that it belongs to the flora of the Mediterranean type. A list of habitats of the Cape has been compiled according to the EUNIS habitat classification. It was found that six native plant species ( Asphodeline lutea , Avena barbata , Hedypnois rhagadioloides , Juniperus excelsa , Pistacia mutica , Rhus coriaria ) and five types of biotopes have a conservation status, which confirms the high conservation value of the territory. It is proposed to include two more rare taxa in the list of protected species in the Crimea: Fumaria petteri and Misopates orontium . High invasive activity of Cheiranthus cheiri and two representatives of the genus Opuntia was revealed. It is recommended to combine two natural monuments - “Cape Plaka” and “The Coastal Aquatic Complex at Cape Plaka” - into a single protected area.
