Keywords: scots pine forests, northern taiga, Karelia, classification of vegetation.
Following the dominant-floristic approach to vegetation, 11 associations of Scots pine forests and open woodlands with 10 sub-associations and 8 variants are distinguished in the White Sea Karelian Coast area (Northern Karelia, Russia). Most of the syntaxa represent the north-taiga units, either associations, or sub-associations within the associations widespread in the boreal zone of Europe. Several units are restricted to Northern Fennoscandia or the only White Sea coasts and islands in their distribution due to both climatic and bedrock factors.
