• The paper is devoted to the research of urban flora formation under conditions of the steppe zone on the example of Ukrainian and Russian cities. A detailed description is given of the structure of flora of urban habitats of the Donetsk-Makiyivka Industrial Agglomeration. We have determined four groups and eight types of habitats under conditions of the Agglomeration. Cultivated green areas, seminatural steppe and residential areas are reported as having the greatest number of species. This fact may be accounted for by a great number of cultivated plants, escaping into the wild and ruderal species.
