Century-old trees play an important ecological role. Their number is decreasing annually
in the world due to the anthropogenic impact and unfavorable environmental conditions,
resulting in a decline in biodiversity.
The purpose of the study is to hold an inventory of the century-old dendroexotics of the
natural and artificial objects of the natural reserve fund of the Ukrainian Polissya, to analyze
their distribution. The object of the study is century-old dendroexotics in the territory of the
natural reserve fund of the Ukrainian Polissya.
Based on the conducted researches of the artificial and natural objects of nature
reserves, it was discovered that the greatest diversity of dendroexotics is presented in the
artificial reserve parks of the Ukrainian Polissya, in particular in the parks-monuments of
landscape gardening (PMLG) of the XVIII -early XX centuries. We have found the following
th
th
century-old introduced tree species: Pinus strobus L., Pinus ponderosa Dougl., Pinus rigida Mill.,
Pinus sibirica (Rupr.) Mayr., Pinus nigra J.F.Arnold, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco,
Ginkgo biloba L., Larix decidua Mill., Larix polonica Racib, Larix kaempferi (Lam.) Carr., Thuja
occidentalis L., Acer trautvetteri Medw., Acer saccharinum L., Acer negundo L., Tilia americana
L., Fagus sylvatica L., Liriodendron tulipifera L., Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marshall., Fraxinus
longicuspis Siebold & Zucc., Populus trichocarpa Torr. еt Gray., Aesculus hippocastanum L.,
Robinia pseudoacacia L., Populus deltoidеs Marshall, Populus canescens (Ait) Smith.
Dendroexotics are represented by one to three specimens in 20 PMLG ('Makarevichivsky',
'Litinsky', 'Zirnensky', 'Volodymyrets', 'Horodoksky Park', 'Alexandria Park', 'Tuchinsky',
'Ushumirsky', 'Ivnitsky', 'Park named after Y. Gagarin', 'Korostyshevsky', 'Kutuzov Park',
'Vilkhovsky', 'Gorodnytsky', 'Lizogubivsky', 'Vaganitsky', 'Tupychivsky', 'Kochubeyevsky',
'Vozdvyzhensky', 'Polonsky'). One-two specimens grow in botanical monuments of nature
(BMN) ('Siberian Cedar' (Pinus sibirica), 'Spruce' (Pinus strobus, Larix decidua), 'Tulip Tree'
(Liriodendron tulipifera), 'Century-old chestnut', 'Horse-chestnut' (Aesculus hippocastanum),
in two complex nature monuments 'Triputnyansky park' (Aesculus hippocastanum),
'Vladimiretsky park' (Robinia pseudoacacia), in landscape reserve 'Sirche' (Thuja occidentalis).
4–6 specimens and an array of dendroexotics were discovered in the BMN 'Juzefinska Dacha'
Pinus strobus, Pinus nigra, Robinia pseudoacacia, in botanical reserve 'Gubine' Larix decidua,
Larix polonica (array), Pinus strobus, in arboretum 'Pilyava' Larix decidua (array), Fagus
sylvatica. The oldest Larix decidua (190 years) (array) grows in Zhytomyr oblast in the BMN
'Modrina'.
In the nature reserves of the Ukrainian Polissya, there are 11 species of the century-old
dendroexotics of the Pinophyta division and 13 species of the Magnoliophyta division. They
are mostly represented in PMLG, where they grow by 2–6 specimens. Pinus strobus, Larix
decidua, Robinia pseudoacacia, Aesculus hippocastanum grow in three to five localities. The
oldest plantations are from Larix decidua.

Kеywords: century-old, the Ukrainian Polissya, dendroexotics.
