Summary/Abstract: The area of the protected landscape "Konjuh" of 8.139,77, ha is located in the northeastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, abounds with different flora and fauna.This work is based on reserach the ecological valorization of wooden fruit trees in the protected landscape "Konjuh".The main goal of this work is to determine and highlight the most important fruit tree taxons for humans and which contribute preservation of biodiversity ecosystems of protected landscape area of Konjuh. One more goal of this work is to determine diversity and number of observed fruit trees on the researched areas and determine phytocoenological communities in which researched plant taxa are present.Reserach was done from 2015 to 2017, it included field work and laboratory work. Field work included areas such as: Mačkovac, Zlača, Zobik, Bebrava and Tiskovac.At these sites, environmental conditions were analyzed and phytocenological records were performed according. Phytocoenological records were done by Braun Blanquet method. Laboratory work included the use of microscope, loupe, determination keys, qualitative and quantitative analysis of taxons which were found.Results from 2015., 2016., twenty taxons (20), and 2017., twenty one (21). Determined wooden fruit trees taxed in phytocenoses Querco-carpinetum, Fagetum sylvaticae montanum and Piceetum abietis montanum. The most common taxa in this herbal communities are Prunus avium L. and Vaccinium myrtillus L., with 90 units, and the least common taxa of Sorbus, 7 units. The wooden fruit trees have multifunctional significance in the Protected landscape „Konjuh“ for biodiversity of environment ring blooming, when they „decorate“ wood and its edges, provide honey bee, bring fruits which are food for many members of fauna as well as for humans, which should contribute to protection and preservation of rare and endagered taxa. It was all done in order to preserve ecological development.
