Scale:

1:20 000 000.

Exactness of the map:

Map is based on data from herbarium specimans and on maps having the following scale 1:25 000 000 - 1:50 000 000.

The projection:

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

Basic contents:

Map is a vector file consisting of polygons and points. Locations of species are represented by points, areas of possible distribution of species are represented by polygons.

Accuracy of the classifier:

Points represent locations of the species referenced in literature sources and from herbarium specimens. Polygons are based on generalized information from literature sources and herbarium specimens.

Method of map production:

Species location data were obtained from a database of site coordinates of the species in the Information retrieval system: wild-growing relatives of cultural plants of Russia (STC Informregistr 0229905883, St. Petersburg, Russia), from maps published by O.A.Svjaseva for "Areas of distribution of trees and shrubs in the USSR" (1980), N.N. Kachura for "Vascular plants of the Soviet Far East" (1987) and I.Yu. Koropachinskiy for "Woody plants of the Asian part of Russia" (2002).
For the most part borders of the area were constructed in accordance with map published by I.Yu. Koropachinskiy (2002). The north-western and north-eastern borders of the area were widen using maps of O.A. Svjaseva (1980) and N.N. Kachura (1987). Part of the area at the Kuriles was drawn in accordance with the locations of the species from maps published by O.A. Svjaseva (1980) and N.N. Kachura (1987).
