It was conducted an ecomorph analysis of plant communities in the arena of the Samara river. The vegetation cover of the territory of the State Enterprise «Novomoskovsky Military Forestry» in the areas of lower forest fires over the past 10 years was investigated and the process of pyrogenic successions was launched. Vegetation is an essential component of biogeocoenosis, which provides vital activity for other biotic components. Therefore, changes in vegetation under the influence of various environmental factors affect the state biogeocoenosis in general. Environmental analysis of plant communities allows qualitative assessment of plant communities and their comparison by composition of cenomorph, klimamorph, heliomorf, termomorf, trophomorf and hygromorf. It was estimated the environmental specific of phytocenosis communities, which is the basis for the development of their environmentally sound storage. It was determined that significant part of the phytocenosis communities is taken by perennials. The species composition of herbaceous plant communities is dominated by plants from the families Asteraceae and Poaseae. The presence of a large number of weeds demonstrates the instability of the ecosystem. In the presence of forest and weed-forest species of herbs. In dry conditions, steppe species are present. Rare plants such as Stipa borysthenica have been discovered. It is included in the red book of Ukraine. A detailed description of the flora and classification of plant communities according to the typology of A. Belgard was made. As a result of studies, it was established that grassy plants, mainly cereals, are actively mastering the ecological niche, which was freed up under the influence of a ground fire. Studies show certain patterns of pyrogenic successions and make it possible to predict such changes in other similar areas and carry out appropriate measures for reforestation, afforestation, care of forest crops and other forestry activities.
