Abstract
Phytosociological and ecological characteristics of four salt meadow associations from the classes Juncetea maritimi and Bolboschoenetea maritimi of the Birjucij Island Spit (Azov Sea, Ukraine) are discussed. Two new syntaxa, the Artemisio santonicae-Juncetum maritimi and the Tripolio pannonici-Caricetum extensae, have been described from the area, together with two previously described syntaxa, the Plantagini salsae-Juncetum maritimi and Tripolio vulgaris-Bolboschoenetum maritimi
