The aim of the work is to supplement and clarify the annotated list of vascular plants of “Castel” nature reserve on the Southern coast of the Crimea. Methods. The work is based on the results of long standing field research, which was carried out by the traditional route-reconnaissance method, analysis of YALT herbarium materials and data from literary and Internet sources. Arealogical and biomorphological characteristics of species are given according to "Biological Flora of the Crimea" by V.N. Golubev, biotope coding according to EUNIS habitat classification. The nomenclature of taxa corresponds to the " Spontaneuos flora of the Crimean peninsula" by A.V. Yena and to international databases Euro+Med PlantBase, The Plant List, Catalog of Life. Results. An additional annotated list of vascular plants of “Castel” nature reserve has been compiled, including 152 species, subspecies and cultivars from 97 genera of 38 families, of which 53 genera and 11 families have also not been cited for this territory before. Arealogical, biomorphological, biotopic and sozological characteristics of the taxa are given. As a result of a critical analysis of the list previously published by E.S. Krainyuk, four species were redefined, two species were proposed to be excluded from the flora of the specially protected natural area, several taxa are considered doubtful. Conclusions. The list of vascular plant taxa in “Castel” nature reserve has been supplemented with 11 families, 53 genera, and 152 species, subspecies, and cultivars; several species from the previously compiled list have been proposed to be excluded or considered doubtful. Thus, the flora of the protected area includes at least 425 species from 68 families. For the first time, the biotopic characteristic of the flora of the reserve was established.

The situation in the ecology of the Crimean Peninsula in recent years was discussed in the article. The analysis of absolute and integrated indicators of the anthropogenic impact showed that the ecological situation remains difficult, and according to some indicators even continues to deteriorate. In summer 2018, the situation had worsened because of the large chemical release of titanium dioxide on the north of the Crimea from the holding pond of a large Russian plant that is situated near the town of Armyansk. This, in turn, led to the contamination of the large territory on the north of the peninsula. This fact indicates insufficient control by officials of the Republic of Crimea over the implementation of the RF laws for environmental protection by business owners of various forms of ownership, especially private ownership, the level of responsibility for the environment of which is very low.

The article presents and summarizes the results of mapping transformational processes in the demographic and ethno-confessional space of the Crimea. Map plots reflect the options for visualizing data on demographic, ethnic and religious processes in the Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol over the past decades. The maps illustrate the dynamics of the population size and density, its natural movement, the balance of migration, marriage and divorce, territorial features of the settlement of large and small ethnic groups of the Crimea, the placement of religious buildings and religious communities on its territory. Maps of rural settlement and the appearance of villages with endangered populations were created and analyzed. The types of dynamics of demographic, ethnic and confessional situations in the Crimea are determined. The analysis of the peculiarities of the dynamics of the ethnodemographic space of the Crimea during the change of its political subjectivity is carried out. The main spatial patterns of the processes that form the modern portrait of the population of the Crimean Peninsula are revealed. The conclusion is made about the possibility of cartographic study of the demographic and ethno-confessional specifics of the territory after preliminary differentiation of socio-cultural processes within its boundaries into large-scale and local ones. This allows us to clarify not only the spatial, but also the essential markers of their occurrence. In modern Crimea, large-scale transformational socio-cultural processes should include all the reproductive and migration changes that are the result of demographic breakdowns that began in the 1990s. The processes of changing its ethnic and confessional spaces should be considered local in Crimea. Their mapping revealed the narrowing nature of such a phenomenon as the polyethnicity of the territory of the Crimean Peninsula. Cartographic study of socio-cultural processes in the Crimea confirmed the author’s hypothesis that the Crimean regional community has not completed the process of post-Soviet transformation and continues to support the development trends established at the end of the twentieth century.

The development of the extractive industry on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula leads to an increase in the number of quarries and, consequently, to an increase in the area occupied by disturbed lands requiring recultivation. The reclamation of such land plots on the basis of creating the necessary conditions for the development on them of regenerative successions of zonal vegetation and ultimately the formation of soils is much cheaper for land users. Therefore, studies of the rates of soil formation, including using the methods of mathematical modeling of the processes of formation of the humus horizon of the soil over time, become relevant. Based on the example of the Alexandrovsky field of saw limestone in the Black Sea region of the Republic of the Crimea, the economic efficiency of reclamation of disturbed land was calculated. The results of the calculation showed that in terms of cost-effectiveness, it is more rational to use the mining engineering model with further self-overgrowing of the sites to be reclaimed when it comes to reclaiming disturbed lands of the Alexandrovsky career.

The “black list” of the Crimean flora, on the territory of two administrative units - the Republic of the Crimea and the federal city of Sevastopol, is presented. The analysis of the alien species of the Crimean flora was carried out and the most dangerous for ecosystems invasive species of higher plants were identified in accordance with the recommendations for keeping the Black Books. The data on distribution, habitats and invasive status (IS) of 70 species are summarized. Transformers are represented by 9 species with IS 1 ( Ailanthus altissima, Bupleurum fruticosum, Elaeagnus angustifolius, Fraxinus ornus, Jacobaea maritima, Opuntia engelmannii subsp. lindheimeri, O. fragilis,O. humifusa, Rhamnus alaternus ), they change the appearance of ecosystems. Nineteen alien species actively disperse and naturalize in disturbed semi-natural and natural habitats (with IS 2) and 42 species (with IS 3) are widely distributed in disturbed habitats. The peculiarity and variety of soil and climatic conditions of the peninsula contribute to the introduction of alien species, many of which are invasive only on the territory of the Republic of the Crimea and the city of Sevastopol. This article is a necessary step towards the preparation of the Black Book of the flora of the Crimean Peninsula and the basis for making decision on prevention the economic and environmental damage of the natural biodiversity of the region.

This article discusses the ongoing controversy in the scientific and political community concerning the legality of Russia’s actions on the rejoining of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014. The author considers the main points of view on the legality of Russia’s actions. At the same time, special attention is paid to the interaction of legal and political aspects that determine the legitimacy of the events analysed in the article. The results of the study showed that further work with the international community to recognise the Crimea as Russian territory should use a broader context of legitimisation (historical, legal, political, socio-cultural, linguistic), and not only rational and legitimate.

This article is dedicated to the study of identity markers in the context of politically motivated persecution by the Russian Federation in the temporarily occupied Crimean Peninsula. The occupational administration, following a set political course, basically builds a generalized „Other‟ that is being persecuted. They also create their own identity markers that further prove the longevity and legitimacy of the temporary occupation of Ukraine's territory. Cases of human rights violations, harassment of national and religious communities in the occupied Crimea are actively documented and investigated by non-governmental human rights organizations: Crimean Human Rights Group, Crimea SOS, Regional Center for Human Rights, Crimean Tatar Resource Center and a number of others. In the article proposed a comprehensive approach to the analysis of collective identity Crimean Tatars and Ukrainian. Author examined the main components of collective identity Crimean Tatars at the present stage. Considered the main challenges faced by the Crimean Tatar and Ukrainian community in connection with the occupation of the Crimea. Today we can talk about a specific list of elements indicating the ethnocide and linguicide agenda, political and religious persecution in the Crimean Peninsula. Furthermore, the so-called „general threat‟ is too blurry and undefined for the Russian Federation based on the gathered material throughout the years of occupation. The occupant cannot classify and define the risks that they face and that compromise the illegal occupation and attempt to annex a part of Ukrainian territory. So, they target all the self-organized active communities that are not controlled by the occupational government. Whether these communities have an agenda, national, cultural, or religious differences is an important factor, but it is not in priority. The Russian occupational regime understands its weakness on the temporarily occupied territory of the Crimean Peninsula, so it utilizes the logic and traditions of other authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. However, it will lead to the collapse of the dictatorship.
