Abstract

The structure of taxa, biomorphology, ecology and ecological–cenotics groups present in the coastal flora of Krasnodar, Tsymlyansk, Veselovsky, and Proletarsky reservoirs, located in the south of the European part of Russia are characterized. Field data were obtained during the field work of the authors in 2004–2013, and a botanical database was formed on this basis. In light of the location of the investigated artificial lakes in different subzones of the steppe zone, the characteristics of the coastal flora can be considered as an ecological–geographical (zonal–regional).
