A continuous-discrete model of time course of a phytocenosis is considered. The properties of the model are studied, and particularly for the case of two-age cenosis it is demonstrated that cyclic rhythms of only length 2 can be realized. Private cases of the model with a large number of age classes are studied numerically, and it is shown that in the cases under study cyclic regimes of various lengths, including chaotic regimes, are possible.
