The paper presents results of the research of the flora and vegetation obtained in the revision of the protected natural area The Canyon of the Mileševka river. The analysis of floral elements of the species of vascular flora in this canyon involved the fundamental types of forest communities, and the communities of rocks and rock creeps. The research determined a total of 27 plant communities with 561 species which accounts for 15% of the total number of species and subspecies of the Serbian flora. It was found that relict polydominant, relict impoverished and recent forest associations are dominant in the area of the canyon. From the aspect of gene pool conservation and the preservation of biodiversity at the national and international levels we can single out the community of Serbian spruce and Spring heath (Erico-Piceetum omorikae mixtum), autochthonous forest of sweet chestnut and beech (Fago- Castanetum sativae mixtum), mixed forest of sweet chestnut and pine (Ostryo-Pineto-Carpinetum mixtum) and the forests of chestnut and hornbeam (Castano-Carpinetum betuli). In the flora of the Canyon of the Mileševka river the presence of 30 endemic taxons (27 species and 3 subspecies) was determined. They account for about 5.3% of the total flora of the canyon of the Mileševka river. From the aspect of taxonomic diversity, endemism and the relict character of the flora, this canyon is one of the most significant centres of floral diversity in the area of Western and South Western Serbia.
