For the representatives of cereals (Poaceae) characteristic of the flora of the Asiatic part of Russia, a comparative anаlysis of the ecological ranges of plant species confined to the coastal regions and the species for which the major part of the range is situated within the continental regions (interior Asia) was carried out. The anаlysis was carried out according to the ecological phytocoenotic groups: coniferous and mixed forests, broad-leaved forests, meadows, communities of spray zones, rocks and stony rubbly outcrops and talus. The trends in the changes of the whole set of indices of the ecological ranges of species, accompanying the transition from the continental climatic conditions of Interior Asia to the Pacific coast with its monsoon climate were revealed.
