Abstract. Despite the fact that the reserves of Uzbekistan have a long history, the inventory of tall plants was carried out only in the Chotkal Biosphere Reserve and the Nurota State Reserve. There is very little information about the flora of the remaining 7 reserves. In particular, the reports of the scientific department of the Surkhan State Reserve list more than 140 plant species. This article provides brief information about the geographical location and vegetation cover of the Surkhan State Reserve.
