SAŽETAK:

Djavolja Varoš, one of the most atractive natural geological formations of errosive origin in Serbia, is situated in the south of the country, and protected by national legislation as a Natural Monument. The taxonomic and ecological analysis of flora in this area has not been processed yet, so we performed a survey of flora in this locality. Plant species were collected, herbarized, and taxonomic and biological spectrum analyses were conducted. This field study revealed that the vascular flora of the study area was made up of 130 constituent species, which belonged to 81 genera and 41 families. The biological spectrum of the flora is characterised by high presence of hemicryphytes (38%) and geophytes (20%).
