[n Russian wuth English abstract:] Under the new conservation concept of "biologically valuable landscapes" the criteria for selection
of lichen species which can be used as indicators of such landscapes are available to discuss.
The approach is similar but not identical to the concept of “biologically valuable forests” developed
and used in the north-western European part of Russia. Using long term lichenological research in
the European Russia (the Central Federal District) as well as fond materials (literature and herbaria)
there was a try to find out some indicator species for the biologically valuable forest landscapes indicative
for different zones (or subzones) of the researched territory. It was found out that part of
the lichen indicator species of the biologically valuable taiga forests go through zone or subzone
borders without losing indicative value. However, when moving from the coniferous-broadleaved
forests subzone to the forest-steppe zone the amount of such species is currently decreasing. It is
suggested to complement these lists with indicator species for the biologically valuable landscapes
(here, forest ones). The criteria of selecting the indicator species are determined. The main are high
demands to the habitat conditions (stenotopic or not) and confinedness only to oldgrowth and undisturbed
forests and bogs as well as old parks. The lists of indicator species for biologically valuable
forest landscapes in the coniferous-broadleaved, broadleaved forests subzones and forest-steppe
zone of the Central Russia are given. These lists are preliminary, expanding and extension of the
zonal research will certainly follow with some alterations – adding or deleting something, in case
we find out wider expansion or frequency of one or the other species.
