Exactness of the map:

The map was created using maps that had a scale of 1:50 000 000, 1:30 000 000, 1:10 000 000, 1:5 000 000.

Projection:

Alber's Equal Area Conic for Russia 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic content:

Map is a vector file consisting of polygons and points. Points represent recorded locations of the species; polygons represent area of possible distribution of the species.

Accuracy of classifier:

Polygons are based on literature sources, political boundaries and ecological description. Point data were obtained from literature sources and herbarium specimens. Polygons are based on literature sources, herbarium samples, and field surveys by the authors. Light points are locations of species that were determined from the literature. Dark points represent locations of species that were determined from herbarium specimens. Locations of species were obtained from the following sources: (Grossgheim, 1939); (Shelyak-Sosonko, 1977); (Tolmachev, 1974); (Malyshev & Peshkova, 1979); (Harkevich, 1991); (Harkevich, 1982). Distribution points were also determined according to herbarium specimens from the following herbaria: Rostov.s Botanical Garden, Voronezh State Biosphere reserve, Voronezh University and Kalmykiya.s University. Polygons were based on the distribution of species described in the following Floras: (Fedorov, 1974), (Malyshev & Peshkova, 1990), (Tzvelev, 1976), (Pavlov, 1956), and (Hulten & Fries, 1986).

Method of map production:

Polygons are based on literature sources, political boundaries and ecological description. Point data were obtained from literature sources and herbarium specimens. Polygons are based on literature sources, herbarium samples, and field surveys by the authors. Map borders were determined as follows: For the west borders by the state border of Russia (Flora of Caucasia, 1939), (Poaceae USSR, 1976), (Hulten & Fries, 1986); For the east border (Flora of Siberia, 1990); For the south border (Poaceae USSR, 1976), (Vasilyuhina, 1960), (Flora of Kazakhstan, 1956), (Hulten & Fires, 1986); and the Russian border; For the north border (Vasilyuhina, 1960), (Hulten & Fries, 1986), (Flora of Siberia, 1990). Several points were not included in the polygon, as they were considered invasions. The polygon map was also made taking into account ecology data from .Descriptions..
