A number of cross-border national parks have been established in the border areas of Russia. On the basis of the studies carried out, it is possible to outline a number of current forest pathology challenges facing the national parks. A full picture of sanitary state of the forest can only be obtained by detailed special surveys. It is necessary to organise monitoring of insects and phytopathogenic fungi on permanent touristic routs and model sites. When determining the situation with forest pathology in a vast region, a systematic approach is required. It includes a consistent study of the composition of pathogens, the selection among them of species causing epiphytotics, identification of their biological and ecological characteristics, assessment of the ecological and economic significance, a study of factors that increase the harmfulness. This makes it possible to determine the range of pathogens to be monitored, to identify forest areas with the highest probability of disease outbreak.
