Diversity of native MAP species and populations, utilization of their exploitation for various human activities, genetic resource etc., is the matter of investigations in different plant communities and sites in Serbia. Our investigations were carried out in the forest and meadow communities on Kosmaj Mt. (near Belgrade), on limestone and serpentine parent rock. Beech (Fagetum submontanum) and oak (Quercetum frainetto-cerris) are dominant forest communities. They are mainly in different stages of degradation with Festucetum vallesiacae as a major type of meadow community. Total of about 557 plant species are coenobionts of these communities, and among them 32% are medicinal plants. In relation to abundance, sociality and presence degree, it is possible to select: Geranium robertianum, Rubus caesium, Aspidium filix-mas, Crataegus monogyna, Origanum vulgare, Potentilla recta etc.
