Map is based on data from herbarium specimens and on maps of scale 1:10,000,000.

The 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 a polygon and points. Locations of species are represented by points; area of possible distribution of species is represented by the polygon.

Accuracy of qualifier:

Light-colored points represent species locations referenced in published sources. Dark-colored points represent locations from while herbarium samples were taken (Vavilov All-Russian Research Institute of Plant Industry, Komarov Botanical Institute, Voronezh State University, Voronezh State Reserve, Rostov State University). Polygon is based on generalized information from published sources, herbarium specimens, political boundaries and ecological descriptions.

Method of map construction:

Location and area of distribution of the species is based on published maps and an analysis of herbarium materials from the Vavilov All-Russian Research Institute of Plant Industry, Komarov Botanical Institute, Voronezh State University, Voronezh State Reserve, Rostov State University. Literature consulted includes Grossgheim (1967), Shishkin (1950), Cherepanov (1995), and Tsvelev (2000).
