the paper is devoted to an assessment of the current state of the coenotic populations of
Astragalus
centralis
, the rarest endemic of the Kyzylkum. It is established that the studied coenopopulations of
A. cen-
tralis
are normal and incomplete. The cenopopulation is young in the herbage-carboxylon-wormwood and
lactuca-wormwood communities and transitional in the
petrophytic plant group. By the sum of the scores of
the organism and population characteristics, all of th
e examined cenopopulations are in a pessimal condition.
