The paper dwells upon existing variants of natural zoning of Karelia and Fennoscandia. Borders of subzones, second order belts, geobotanical sectors in Karelia are considered. Zonal affiliation of the northern Ladoga area is discussed, and it is stressed that there are no biogeographical arguments for including it in southern taiga. Analysis of existing variants of natural zoning and the current situation along the Russian-Finnish border shows geobotanical zoning schemes can, after certain correction and detailing, be used as the basis for differentiation of the plant cover [Раменская, Шубин, 1975; Геоботаническое.., 1989; Юрковская, 2000]. Geobotanical sectors along the border are characterized.
