In this territory we investigate 289 species of medicinal plants belonging to 175 genera and 58 families. 39 species of microscopic fungi were found from 41 species of medicinal plants from this area. Among the taxa of fungi 18 species belong to Ascomycota, 7 belong to Basidiomycota and 1 belongs to Oomycota divisions. Golovinomyces genus from powdery fungi was the dominant for 11 higher plants, the most common species of micromycetes in this territory is G. galeopsis (about 15.4% of the total), which causes of medicinal plants from the family Lamiaceae.
