Annotation
The article examines endemic and rare species of the genus Astragalus distributed in the flora of the Bukantau residual mountains (Kyzylkum Desert). An analysis of their taxonomic composition, ecological characteristics, and current population status was carried out. It was established that representatives of the genus are characterized by a high degree of endemism and a strong association with petrophytic habitats. The necessity of conservation of rare species and monitoring of their populations under increasing anthropogenic pressure is emphasized.
