Annotation

Progress floristic classification of the vegetation of Russia is obvious (Mirkin, Ermakov, 2010; Mirkin, Naumova, 2011). However, in the vast territory of the country are still many «white spots», vegetation which syntaxonomically not been studied. One of these large «white spots» — the vegetation of the bogs. For years, the «monopolist» in ecologo-floristic classification of wetlands was V. A. Smagin (student major Soviet bolotoved M. S. Boch). He studied the vegetation of wetlands of the Northern regions of the European taiga and the basin of Myriagon Surgut Polesie (Smagin, 1998, 2000, 2003, etc.). Peer-reviewed monograph on the vegetation of mires in Western Siberia can be considered as a breakthrough in the syntaxonomy of this type of vegetation. Moreover, as a result of the work of E. D. Lapshina picture of syntaxonomy of bog vegetation has changed so much that one can speak about a kind of «syntaxa of the revolution».
