Abstract
The vegetation of the coastal cliffs along the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov coasts in the Crimea belongs to the class Crithmo-Staticetea; the syntaxonomic system includes one order, two alliances, three associations, and seven subassociations. The syntaxon communities can be used in phytoindication as they allow to identify coastal landforms. The plant communities of the class in the Crimea are represented by 48 species of vascular plants from 20 families. The area of distribution of Crithmum maritimum, its ontogenesis, and seasonal rhythm of development are described. Limited or regulated use is recommended for landscapes with plant communities of class Crithmo-Staticetea.
