This study presents phytosociological and some ecological characteristics of the Isoëtetum durieui association naturally distributed in Istanbul, Turkiye. During the present study a community was characterised and compared with other communities in different regions of the world. The discussion was followed accordingly. The results obtained from the soil samples of the I. durieui association showed that the concentrations of boron, calcium, copper, iron, potassium, magnesium, manganese, lead and zinc were within the limit values, while those of Cd were higher.
