Aipeisova S.A. DISJUNCTION IN THE FLORA OF AKTJUBINSKAYA FLORA REGIONThe study of natural habitat of the flora types of Aktjubinskaya flora region defined 79 species with real disjunctive natural habitats that made up 6.05% of the total number of our flora species. According to the spatial disjunction 3 groups of disjunctive natural habitats were revealed: a mega-disjunctive group, a macro-disjunctive group and a meso-disjunctive one. The ratio of disjunctive natural habitat groups of Aktjubinskaya flora region proves the heterogeneity and heterochroma of the flora.Key words: disjunction, natural habitat, the primary and secondary types of disjunction, megadisjunction, macrodisjunction, mesodisjunction, endemic.
