Abstract:

The article represents a preliminary general view of the regional disposition and morphostructural essence of the South Morava morphostructural zone. This north-west marginal morphostructural unit of the Bulgarian continental micro morphotecture (from the east part of the Balkan Peninsula) is located in the border region of East Serbia, partially in West Bulgaria and in the north border part of the Republic of Macedonia. The west border of the South Morava morphostructural zone coincides with the primary suture between the Bulgarian continental microplate (to the east) and the Carpathian, Dinarian and Pind continental microplates. This very important tectonic contact was predetermined by the necessity of origin, the place, the direction, the form and the most important internal pattern elements of the South Morava morphostructural zone.

Keywords:
