Plants of the Cyperaceae Juss., nom. cons. family are more common in swamps or places where the water level changes frequently. Plants with high water requirements are of great importance in the protection of the ecosystem, as well as nature. Species of the Cyperaceae Juss., nom. cons. family enrich the vegetation of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, creating various phytocenoses and formations. Representatives of the family distinguish by their wide ecological groups and morphological diversity. Considering that the species are both poisonous and non-poisonous, as well as honey-producing plants, we see that they are an important structural component in the vegetation.
