Abstract
New syntaxa are described, validation of alliance is carried out. New data on the distribution of plant communities, their ecology and composition are given. Alliance Carici supinae-Stipion zalesskii Korolyuk all. nov. Holotypus - ass. асс. Artemisio austriacae-Stipetum capillatae Schubert, Jager et Mahn ex Korolyuk 2014. Diagnostic species (D. s.): Artemisia austriaca , Carex supina , Festuca valesiaca , Potentilla humifusa , Seseli ledebourii , Stipa capillata , S. zalesskii. The alliance unites bunchgrass typical steppes of the steppe zone of the Trans-Volga-Kazakhstan steppe province (Lavrenko et al., 1991). It is characterized by prevalence of widespread steppe xerophytes, including bunchgrasses. Three associations within the alliance have been described. Ass. Artemisio austriacae-Stipetum capillatae Schubert, Jager et Mahn ex Korolyuk 2014 - bunchgrass typical steppes of Western Siberia, the Urals, the Southern Urals, the Trans-Urals, and Northern Kazakhstan. D. s.: Artemisia austriaca , Carex supina , Festuca valesiaca , Potentilla humifusa , Seseli ledebourii , Stipa capillata , S. zalesskii . Ass. Artemisio nitrosae-Festucetum valesiacae Zolotareva, Korolyuk et Makunina 2023 - steppes on sandy soils. D. s.: Artemisia nitrosa , Camphorosma monspeliaca , Kochia prostrata . Ass. Gypsophilo paniculatae-Artemisietum glaucae Korolyuk 2014 Zolotareva, Korolyuk et Makunina 2023 - steppes on sandy soils. D. s.: Artemisia frigida , A. marschalliana , Cleistogenes squarrosa , Gypsophila paniculata , Helichrysum arenarium , Silene borysthenica , S. borysthenica . A new association is described in the class Salicetea herbaceae Br.-Bl. 1948, the order Salicetalia herbaceae Br.-Bl. in Br.-Bl. et Jenny 1926 and the alliance Saxifrago stellaris-Oxyrion digynae Gjaerevoll 1950. Ass. Hymenolomo crispuli-Salicetum polaris Sinelnikova ass. nov. (Suppl., Table 2) - snowbed communities of the class Salicetea herbaceae Br.-Bl. 1948 in the highlands of the south-eastern spurs of the Chersky ridge (Magadan Region). D. s.: Anthelia juratzkana , Bistorta elliptica , Carex podocarpa , Hymenoloma crispulum , Lagotis minor , Salix polaris. The association includes two subassociations - typicum (Suppl., Table 1, rel. 1-24) and rhodioletosum quadrifidae (Suppl., Table 1, rel. 24-37). A new association is described in the class Festucetea vaginatae Soό 1957, the order Festucetalia vaginatae Soό 1957 and the alliance Sileno borysthenicae-Cleistogenion squarrosaeKorolyuk 2017. Ass. Kitagawio baicalensis-Festucetum beckeri Chupina ass. nov. (Suppl., Table 3) - psammophytic steppes on the terraces of the right bank of the Ob river. D. s.: Kitagawia baicalensis , Melilotus albus , Vicia amoena , Vincetoxicum sibiricum , Hippophae rhamnoides. The article presents new data on the distribution of the associations from the class Therosalicornietea Tx. in Tx. et Oberd. 1958: Salicornietum perennantis (Soó ex Wendelberger 1943) Soó 1964 nom. corr. (Suppl., Table 3, 4), Salicornio perennantis-Suaedetum salsae Freitag, Golub et Yuritsina 2001 (Suppl., Table 5), Suaedetum kulundensis Korolyuk 2010 (Suppl., Table 6), Suaedetum salsae Golub et Tchorbadze in Golub 1995 (Suppl., Table 7), Artemisio nitrosae-Camphorosmetum songoricae Korolyuk 1999 (Suppl., Table 8), Suaedetum corniculatae Burtseva in Mirkin et al. 1992 (Suppl., Table 9), Suaedo corniculatae-Camphorosmetum songoricae Korolyuk 1999 (Suppl., Table 10).
