Erebuni State Reserve (Armenian: Էրեբունի պետական արգելոց, romanized: Erebuni petakan argelots'), is a nature reserve in Yerevan, Armenia, designated in 1981.[1] It is located around 8 km southeast of the capital's city-centre, in the Erebuni District. In 2015, the reserve was increased from 89 to 120 hectares, gaining 31 hectares in Voghjaberd.[2] The reserve is mainly semi-deserted mountain-steppe and has an elevation of 1300–1450 meters above sea level.[3]
The reserve was formed to protect the wild types of Poaceae, including the Triticum araraticum. Many of the protected species are included in the Red Book of Armenia.[2]
It also has many other protected and endemic plant species, including Iris elegantissima.[4]
The reserve is also home to many types of amphibians, including Pelobates syriacus, marsh frog and European green toad. Many types of rodents are also found in the reserve.[citation needed]
