  Abstract:   Flora of the Carpathians includes 121 arctic-alpine taxa of species and subspecies rank. The arctic-alpine elements of Ukrainian flora consist of 67 species, or 7,4% of the Ukrainian Carpathians highland flora. Out of those, 55 species have Holarctic distribution, 3 species – Eurasian, 6 species – Euro-American and 3 species are European. Arctic-alpine plants are confined mainly to the high mountains landscape, which include glacial landforms – cirques and rocky ridges of mountain ranges. Subalpine and alpine belts of Chornohora, Svydovets, Marmarosh and Chyvchyny massifs are the basic refugia for arctic-alpine plant species in Ukraine.
