In this article, results of five-year research of the quantitative and qualitative structure of the Gruza water reservoir are given. By using floral analysis, we determined the presence of 64 vascular plant species. Most of the species are mesophytes, and 28 species are hydrophytes. Areal spectrum analysis determined that holarctic and cosmopolitan floral elements dominate the reservoir. As for the life forms, hydrophytes and hemicryptophytes dominate the reservoir. In the view of ecology factors, mesophylic and hygroheliophilic, neurophylic, mesotrophic, semisciophytes and mesothermal species are dominant. Macrophytic vegetation of the Gruza water reservoir is characterized by variety, fragmentation, and mosaic-like distribution of some plant species facias. Communities present in the water reservoir can be classified into five vegetation classes. Water vegetation (submerged and floating) is poorly developed. Emerged vegetation is best developed, and it is often alternated or imbued with the elements of the wet dumps and surrounding fields wet meadows. Considerable amounts of weed plants from the surrounding agricultural eco-systems are found in the water reservoir.
