This paper is a summary of literature reviews concerning the diversity of medicinal
plants and the results of our many years studies. It includes scientific and practical justifications
of the importance of monitoring species diversity of the studied object. Results of monitoring the
species composition of wild medicinal plants in some areas of the southern slope of the Gissar
Range are specified. As a result of studying 11 gorges (Gazhne, Safedchashma, Gusgarf, Shamal,
Obi-Zugora, Gulobod, Yos, Yavroz, Semiganch, Odzhuk, Magov), 174 species of medicinal
plants were found that belong to different botanical taxa. This number of plants includes
representatives of 106 genera belonging to 46 families, among which representatives of the aster
family predominate: Asteraceae (36 species), Rosaceae (19 species), Lamiaceae (16 species), etc.
Compared with the number of known plants growing within the territory of the Republic of
Tajikistan, the number of species found was 11.6%. In relation to the number of plants that are
recognized as medicinal in the world, species diversity of the southern slopes of Gissar Range is
less than one percent. However, the number of species is comparable to locations with similar
climatic conditions.
