Question: What is the current state of the flora of Tsumanska Pushcha National Nature Park? What are the systematic, geographical, biomorphological, and ecological structures of the flora of Tsumanska Pushcha National Nature Park? Locations: Volyn region (Oblast), Ukraine. Methods: The field surveys, revision of the herbarium collections, and critical analysis of the literature and open biodiversity databases. Nomenclature: http://powo.science.kew.org, https://europlusmed.org Results: The flora of Tsumanska Pushcha National Nature Park contains at least 889 species and subspecies of vascular plants. It is more than 59 % of the floris-tic diversity of Polissia within the Volyn region and approximately 42.9 % of the floristic diversity of the Ukrainian Polissia. The native plants fraction is represented by 718 species and subspecies and the alien plants – by 171. The systematic structure of the flora is typical for the West Polissia. The families with the largest number of species are Asteraceae (68 taxa), Rosaceae (52 taxa), Poaceae (50 taxa) – for native fraction; Asteraceae (33 taxa), Rosaceae (13 taxa), Brassicaceae (12 taxa) – for alien fraction. The flora`s adventitization index is 19.1%, which is an average indicator compared to other important nature protection territories. Among the aboriginal plants, taxa with European (24.5 %), Eurasian (20.3 %), Boreal (14.2 %) and European-Mediterranean (13.5 %) geographical range prevail. We revealed the separated from their general distribution area localities of such species as Blechnum spicant, Genista sagittalis, and Osmunda regalis. It can be an evidence of their relic origin. The alien fraction of the flora is mostly represented by plants with Sub-Mediterranean (44.4 % of the alien fraction), American (24.7 %), and Asian (17.5 %) origin. The forest (30.8 %), meadow (21.2 %) and wetlands (20.2 %) species predominant in the ecological structure of the native flora; synanthropic (66,7 %) are the largest ecological group in the alien fraction of the flora. Conclusions: The Park has a mosaic structure and lacks territorial integrity, but its flora is notable for a medium level of adventive species and a high level of floristic diversity. The systematic, geographical, biomorphological, and ecologi-cal structures of the flora studied are typical for the South-West Polissia region. The presence of some relict plants highlights the unique character of the flora and the importance of protecting it.
