Two computer data bases were formed: reference base «Prodromus» including the nomenclature forest syntaxa and experienced geobotanic releves «Forests of European Russia». Ecological, coenotic and floristic analysis of broadleaved-coniferous forests mostly corresponding to association Rhodobryo rosei – Piceetum abietis Korotkov 1986 was conducted with these bases. Releves (305) from South taiga and broadleaved-coniferous subzone were used. The analysis revealed complex syntaxonomy, boreal-nemoral character and wide distribution ass. Rhodobryo-Piceetum from central European Russia. Ecological comparison of this association with some nomenclature types of broadleaved-coniferous communities in East Europe was carried out. Preliminary prodromus for European Russian mixed forests is suggested. Role of ecological, succession and regional factors was shown for differentiation of syntaxa.

Key words: coniferous-broadleaved forests, аss. Rhodobryorosei—Piceetumabietis Коротков 1986, Detrended Correspondence Analysis, direct gradient analysis, ecological coenotic analysis
