abstract: Poleski National Park has been founded in 1990. There are a lot of drainage ditches in its area. Some of these objects were dammed to stop water outflow from the Park area, some of them stopped functioning because of lack of preservation and, consequently, underwent natural succession. Vascular plants which exist in drainage ditches are particularly interesting objects of floral research, since so far no detailed botanical evaluation of them has been made. The aim of the present research was the detailed floristic evaluation of selected objects and comparison of its species abundance with the flora of adjacent habitats.
