Abstract
The problem of preservation of a relict of nemoral flora Menispermum dauricum DC. in nature is considered. The age structure and features of six local populations are studied. It is shown that, in spite of fact that the species is phytocoenotic patient, local populations on mountain-steppe slopes are influenced by destructive exogenous geomorphological processes. For preservation and restoration of Menispermum dauricum, reservations should be organized. This will also help to introduce and reintroduce Menispermum dauricum.
