Description
Summary:We studied anthecological features of 84 species of alpine entomophilous  plants northwestCaucasus. Duration of flowering alpine plants varies widely. Flower opened in average 6-7 days minimum has Veronica gentianoides (1 day), and the maximum Dactylorchiza euxina (17 days). Flower opened in average 6-7 days; Veronica gentianoides has a minimum value (1 day), and Dactylorchiza euxina has a maximum value (17 days). Average duration of a flower blooming on the shoot - 12 days minimum value in Taraxacum stevenii (3 days), the highest in Carum meifolium (26 days). Flowering curves of communities have unimodal shape. Species begin to blossom in the community at different times. Synchronicity of flowering is independent of the type of  community.
