Annotation

A high-mountain vegetation research has been carried out in the southeastern part of the Tigiretsk Ridge (the Altai Mts.). The observed communities totally refer to 14 formations, 10 floristic-coenotic types, and 4 ecological-historical series. Communities of the subalpine vegetation belt and the alpine mea­dows form the cryo-mesophilous and the cryo-hemi­hygrophilous ecological-historical series, respectively. Vegetation of mountain tundras is represented by the cryo-hemixerophilous and the cryo-hygrophilous series.
