Abstract
The paper presents new records for 28 vascular plant species from 14 Eurasian countries. Five taxa (Catabrosa capusii, Poa albertii, Poa intricata, Poa pseudoaltaica, Poa sergievskajae) are reported from Kazakhstan, three (Ranunculus pseudomonophyllus, Ranunculus smirnovii, Ranunculus turczaninovii) from Mongolia, three (Panicum barbipulvinatum, Stipa eriocaulis, Tragopogon pratensis subsp. minor) from Poland, three (Euphorbia subtilis, Corydalis grubovii, Thymus callieri) from Russia, two (Atriplex ornata, Corispermum dutreuilii) from Afghanistan, two (Orobanche grenieri, Ranunculus mongolicus) from Kyrgyzstan, two (Erigeron annuus, Sternbergia lutea) from Tajikistan, two (Orobanche baumanniorum, Orobanche kotschyi) from Turkey, one (Polygonum subaphyllum) from China, one (Orobanche bartlingii) from Georgia, one (Rubus slavonicus) from Germany, one (Cenchrus spinifex) from Montenegro, one (Rubus canadensis) from Slovenia and one (Bolboschoenus yagara) from Switzerland. For each species, synonyms, general distribution, habitat preferences, taxonomy with remarks on recognition and differentiation of the species from the most similar taxa occurring in a given country as well as a list of recorded localities (often far from the previously known areas) are presented.
Highlights
During the field exploration across the vast area of European and Asian countries, as well as during taxonomic revisions of herbarium material of different groups of vascular plants, we found some species which are new to the floras of particular countries or its significant regions
The purpose of this paper is to report new records for 39 vascular plant species from eight Eurasian countries
Taxonomic notes The concept of Aniselytron Merrill proposed by Korthof and Veldkamp (1984), comprising two species (Aniselytron agrostoides (Kuntze) Soják and Aniselytron treutleri Merrill), is usually used in some floristic treatments and checklists in southeast Asia [Hsu et al, 2000; Kress et al, 2003; Lu and Phillips, 2006]
Summary
It might seem that good knowledge on the general distribution of vascular plants has been attained. The present paper is dedicated to new national and regional vascular plant records, to broad our knowledge on their distribution and taxonomy. During the field exploration across the vast area of European and Asian countries, as well as during taxonomic revisions of herbarium material of different groups of vascular plants, we found some species which are new to the floras of particular countries or its significant regions (provinces or republics). The purpose of this paper is to report new records for 39 vascular plant species from eight Eurasian countries. This work aims to contribute to a better understanding of spreading directions of particular vascular plants as well as species composition of selected countries and/or geographical regions of Eurasia
