Khosrov Forest State Reserve pear ("Pyrus"), rowan ("Sorbus"). The southern steep sunny and dry slopes are covered by juniper sparse forests. Caucasian oak ("Quercus macranthera") forests can be found at an altitude of 1600–2300 m above sea level, which are rather dense in Khosrov district of the reserve known as "Trchnaberd". Oak forests are accompanied by ash ("Fraxinus excelsior", "Fraxinus rotundifolia"), rowan ("Sorbus aucuparia"), pear ("Pyrus"), maple ("Acer") and others. Bushes are abundant in the forests, represented by different species of wayfaring tree ("Viburnum lantana"), honeysuckle ("Lonicera"), rose ("Rosa"), hawthorn ("Crataegus"). The vegetation in the forests is rich in grass (family "Poaceae" L.). Mountainous
North Fork Mountain pine barren in the Central Appalachians. Other rocky summits, including the summit of Pike Knob, are blanketed by red pine ("Pinus resinosa") forests, here at their southernmost natural occurrences. The Monongahela National Forest has designated of old growth red pine forest on the mountain as the North Fork Mountain Red Pine Botanical Area. Another unusual vegetation type on North Fork Mountain is an elfin forest dominated by yellow birch ("Betula alleghaniensis"), mountain ash ("Sorbus americana"), and mountain holly. The oak-and-pine vegetation of North Fork Mountain contrasts strongly with the more diverse vegetation of the nearby mountains just west of the
