Rare and in need of further preservation plants of Krasnoyarsk flora

The consequences of increasing urbanization in the modern world are in the field of knowledge of a wide variety of sciences, while one of the most important aspects of this problem is monitoring the biological diversity of urban areas, as the main condition for their sustainable ecological development. The study of urban flora is one of the priority areas of modern floristry and phytogeography, the scientific value of which is steadily increasing due to the strengthening, both in time and in space, of anthropogenic pressure. The purpose of the article is to identify plant species for the Red List of Threatened Animals and Plants of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the urbanized landscape of the city of Krasnoyarsk and to determine their status. As a result of the study, 56 species of protected plants in Krasnoyarsk were identified, proposed for protection in the new edition of the regional Red List of Threatened Animals and Plants of 2022. A list of Red List of Threatened Animals and Plants species was compiled indicating the main habitats and distribution in 26 established and studied model sites within the city. For each species, Latin and Russian names, main habitats, frequency of occurrence and abundance are given, in the case of authors’ own collections. The statuses of rare species of Krasnoyarsk have been determined: 1 species has an indefinite status - 4 (I); 28 species have the status 3 (R) - rare species; 25 species have status 2 (V) - vulnerable species, 2 species with status 1 (E) - endangered species.
