    ABSTRACT
    Flora conspectus of Fabales and “Ecological-geobotanical map of some phytocenoses formed by legumes in the natural vegetation of Azerbaijan” was prepared on the basis of the collected herbarium samples, literary sources, systematic, biomorphological, geographical, ecological and endemic analysis of the Fabales orders distributed in the flora of Azerbaijan during the researches carried out in 2007–2021. Order is represented by a Fabaceae family and 70 genus and 460 species was determined. According to this research, 7 genus (10%) and 13 species (2.83%) belong to the Caesalpinioideae subfamily, 1 genus (1.4%) and 1 species (0.22%) to Cercidoideae subfamily, 62 genus (88.6 %) and 446 species (96.95%) belong to the Faboideae subfamilies It became clear during the research that species composition of the Fabales order in the flora of Azerbaijan consists mainly of plants belonging to the Fabaceae family. The compilation of the flora conspectus of the Fabales order has scientific and practical importance in terms of preserving and increasing the number of species belonging to the order in the flora of Azerbaijan, especially its endangered representatives.
