This work view main approaches of botanical-geographic regionalization of Sakhalin Island. Schmidt F.B. maked the first attempt to zoning Sakhalin Island and devided Sakhalin Island into two districts. The border line between districts called “Schmidt line”. Japanese scientists examined and corrected “Schmidt line” while south part of Sakhalin Island stay in Japanese occupation. More details work about botanical-geographic regionalization make Russian scientist A.I. Tolmachev. His scheme include four floristic zones and fourteen districts of Sakhalin Island. Many scientists had try to make botanical-geographic regionalization of Sakhalin Island later (M.G. Popov, A.L. Tahtadzhyan, V.A. Nedoluzhko and others). The most precise and full scheme of botanical-geographic regionalization of Sakhalin Island is the scheme of P.V. Krestov, V.Y. Barkalov and A.A. Taran. We take this scheme for our research. According this scheme Sakhalin territory include two zones, each one includes three floristic districts. There are brief characteristic of each district.
