Аннотация:A checklist of the flora for the territory of the Main Botanic Garden of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow), compiled by the authors, enumerates 856 taxa from 406 genera representing 94 families. Long-term changes in the floristic composition have been considered for the first time. The plant species listing is found to have been augmented by 54 taxa of the native flora, 283 escapees from cultivation and 40 alien adventive plants, resulting in 1.8 times as large a total as 65 years ago. Yet only a single species, Adenocaulon adhaerescens, has been found outside the Botanic Garden territory. The composition of 10 leading families differs considerably in the native and alien fractions of the Garden flora: while Compositae are at the top of the list in both parts, Gramineae, Cyperaceae, Caryophyllaceae and Polygonaceae are not as prominent in the alien fraction as they are in the native part of the flora. At the same time, Liliaceae, Boraginaceae and Umbelliferae play a more important part in the alien segment of the flora. Families specific exclusively to the native and alien parts of the flora are identified. Alien plants are grouped in accordance with their life forms and invasive status.
