The basic directions of plant morphometrics (phytomorphometrics) development, as a branch of botany, engaged in the quantitative description of appropriateness of a structure and development of plant individuals and their structural parts are considered. The main attention is given to the new and promising directions: allometry, correlation adaptometry, fluctuating asymmetry and to processes of growth and formbuilding in plants. The critical estimation of some morphometrics methods is given.

The data on fingins and distribution of one liverwort species (Marchantiophyta) and  20 moss species (Bryophyta) on 3 sandy massives in Pivdenny Bug river flood-plain are given in the article. Cosmopolite species with wide econiche, helads and pioneer species of movable sandy substrates predominate in the bryoflora.

Three species (3,1%) are considered ubiquists with occurring on variety of substrats. The annotated list of taxa is compiled.

The Algae Culture Collection of Kyiv University (ACKU) is a non-profit subdivision of Department of Botany that is located at the National Taras Shevchenko University,f Kyiv, which not only maintains an important resource of algal biodiversity but affords all its algal strains for study by scientific community for scientific and educational purposes. The ACKU comprises a great number of freshwater species. At the  moment ACKU holds 540 strains that belong to 109 genera and 283 species (including 246 authentic strains), mostly from Chlorophyta and Xanthophyta.

Structural and comparative analysis of aquatic flora of Eastern Galicya is presented. Systematic, geographical, biological, ecological and coenotic structure are analyzed. It was found that The aquatic flora of the region is found to include 134 species. The localities of rare species are marked. Urgent tasks are outlined for the future.

Morphological and bioecological features of Oriental persimmon (Diospyros lotus L.) in the Forest-Steppe zone of Ukraine are elucidated. Reproductive ability, morphological and metrical characteristics of vegetative and generative organs are studied. The methods and terms of propagation are described.

20 species of bryophytes are found in the built-up area of Kyiv city. Most of them are synanthropic. The most common bryophytes species were Orthotrichum pumilum, Pylaisia polyantha, Leskea polycarpa and Ceratodon purpureus which dominated in bryophyte overgrowths on tree bark. According to the distribution of epiphytic bryophytes five zones with different anthropogenic impact were distinguished in Kyiv: compact city zone, areas along roadways with heavy traffic, green plantations of the apartment block, small parks and squares in the built-up area, parks and wood in the suburbs.

In the article, the list of sozophytes of the Lower Dniper flood-plain is given with  38 species of vascular plants described.

Juniperus excelsa Bieb. is the Crimean relict species listed in the Red Data Book of Ukraine. Local population of J. excelsa  is one of the greatest in the Crimea. This article provides data on population density depending on slope exposure and its age structure. The syntaxonomy of Kyzyltash juniper communities and ecological specific of their habitats is described. It is stated, that Kyzyltash juniper populations are under the threat of extinction. It is recommended to establish a protected area in Kyzyltash.
