The Caucasus ecosystems are distinguished for exceptional biodiversity and are home to many rare plant species. Today, there are two large areas with virtually undisturbed mountain-forest, mountain-meadow and subniveal ecosystems in the western part of the Greater Caucasus: the Caucasian and Teberda Nature Reserves. The Caucasus State Reserve is located in the Western Caucasus within three entities of the Russian Federation: the Krasnodar Territory, the Republic of Adygea and the Karachay-Cherkess Republic. Its territory comprises many mountain formations with original and unique flora peculiar only for the Western Caucasus region. Every fifth plant in the Caucasus Reserve is an endemic or a relic.
