Phytosociological characteristics of chosmophitic communities on subalpine serpentine cliffs of Kopaonik Mt (Serbia) were analyzed according to Braun-Blanquet methodology. In order to detect purely floristic differentiation of analyzed communities we applyed ordinary Correspondence Analysis (CA). Relationship between vegetation and environment was assessed using the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA), while classification of sites was performed using UPGMA method and chord distance. All analyses were performed using the latest version of the FLORA package. According to floristic and ecological characteristics, analysed cosmophitic communities on serpentine cliffs of Kopaonik mountain is dividied in three new associations: Edraiantho jugoslavici - Festucetum pancicianae ass. nova, Silenetum serbicae ass. nova, and Musco Jovibarbetum kopaonikense ass. nova.
