Annotation:
The article presents a database of localities of rare vascular plants on the territory of Tunkinsky National Park. The database operates in GIS format and includes information on 146 specific locations of 51 species. Today, science department of Tunkinsky National Park is working on the preservation and reproduction of Megadenia bardunovii on the basis of a scientific station in Kyren settlement, a nursery-garden has been created for the reproduction of Megadenia, which also performs the function of maintaining the reserve population of this rare species. The state of populations and protection measures for rare plants used for medicinal purposes are also of particular concern. These are such as species Rhodiola rosea, Rh. pinnatifida Boriss., Rhododendron adamsii Rehd., Caragana jubata, Fornicium carthamoides, and Adonis sibirica. Monitoring of these species abundance is also important. Analysis of the available data makes it possible to identify the distribution of rare plant species, and to develop protection measures for them.
