Vegetation of the Republic of Macedonia – the plant cover, ie the totality of all plant communities developed on the territory of the Republic of Macedonia. It is a mosaic of various vegetable communities entering a composition of different vegetation types, of which the most significant are the following: vegetation of hill pastures – develops in the altitude of 80-1000 (1200) m, a heterogeneous geological base (silicate, limestone, Dolomite , Serpentine, Arsenic, Anditen, etc.). It has a secondary origin and occurred with the destruction of the forests of the lowland belt. It is represented with over 10 associations that belong to the class Festzo-Bronchea. Water vegetation – develops in natural lakes in the Republic of Macedonia (Ohrid, Prespa and Dojran Lake). He represented with 6 associations and 2 classes – posed and lemonuring. In the past, water communities developed in some wetlands, and with melioration almost completely destroyed. Livadic vegetation – Leadings of all valleys in the Republic of Macedonia (80-1000 m) belong to the class of Molynio-Arrheneache (Soy. Triflifolion Resupinates), and the surfaces they develop are quite reduced. The meadings of the mountain belt (1000-1400 m) belong to Soy. Rumicion ThStrieflors. Lowins Blent Vegetation – it is represented by 13 associations belonging to classes of food and emotional nanium. In the past, it was extensive across the numerous marsh and wetlands, but with the melioration of the larger valleys (Pelagonia, Strumica, Skopje, Ohridstric, Ovchepoleska and others) have been destroyed large areas or meet in a fragmentary state and they are converted into arable land. Subalpic and Alpine vegetation – extends above the upper limit of the forest belt, from 1600-2770 m, where climatic conditions are the most unfavorable (long winters, short summers, short vegetation period). It covers various plant communities that develop on a heterogeneous substrate (acid soils, carbonates, mountain shivers, sipstaries, tucila, rockies, rocks, etc.), belonging to different vegetation classes – ELDNO-Šensedia, Customs Curvulae, Salitetea Herbacea, Scheuzhezhea Fascabe, Spinosae, Aspenia Tritzmanis and others. In the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, communities and other vegetation types – communities on the edges of Shu, weed (in cereal and writers), ruderal communities, communities of tranquets, shrubest communities and others. Halophytka and Stepola Vegetation – develops in the central parts of the Republic of Macedonia (between Veles, Sveti Nikole, Stip and Negotino). Halophytic communities are developed on shelter soils, small areas in Ovce Pole, syntaxonomic belong to the class of Tero-Salitzorrevedia and dominated by halofi-precoing Maritima, Salitzornia Herbacea, Tshapmorosma Anna, Cafrosma Montpellia and others. The depolality Vegetational map of the Republic of Macedonia Vegetation is in Festzo-Bronchea, it develops paleogenic and neogeneous locations, with the presence of more steppe species – Morina Persica, Astragalus Parnassey, Headum Macedonicezum, Onozazhis Xanskaze and others. Forest vegetation – extends to much of the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, from 100-2200 m. The decisive forests are dominated (oak, black and white gaber, waters, chestnuts, beech). The evergreen (forests of pine, fir, spruce) and mixed forests (elo-beech forests) extend to smaller surfaces. Due to the great exploitation in the lowland belt, they are very degraded and in separate places are completely destroyed. Over 80 forest associations have been presented, covered in 7 classes, the most significant are the classes of Ljuherzo-Fagetea and Victimenio-Picethe. VL. M.
