Analysis of biomorphological structure of the steppe phytocenosises of Opuksky Natural Reserve revealed regional characteristics of vegetation which were based on adaptive features of growing species. On the basis of contingency coefficients between the groups of biomorphological features were marked eco-biomorphological types of plants, which allow complete investigation on the features of individual ecobiomorphs, identification of ecological identity of steppe landscape and planning of further environmental activities.
