1:20 000 000Accuracy of the map:
Map was created based on materials of maps of natural scale 1:20 000 000 - 1:55 000 000 and on literature data.Projection:
"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.Basic contents:
Vector map. Area of species distribution is shown by polygons and sporadic distribution by points. Zones of weediness are shown by polygons.Accuracy of classifier:
The weed area is subdivided into two zones, one representing species distribution, and the second where weed is considered a serious pest. Points represent locations where sporadic occurrence has been reported. The zone of weediness was allocated inside the main area in the forest zone on arable lands where the weed grows with an abundance of 2-3 points and occurrence in fields of 4-12%. These statistics were determined according to the following sources: Shlyakova (1982), Nikitin (1985), Ulyanova (1998).Method of map production:
Published literature was reviewed, including Atlases, monographs and papers. Occurrence data were obtained from herbarium specimens, floras, monographs and papers. L. vulgare map from Hulten & Fries (1986) was used as a prototype. We determined the distribution of the species along with its subspecies based on Hulten & Fries (1986). The map was supplemented with the following data: Malyshev (1979), Tolmachev (1977), Kharkevich (1992), Petrosyan et al. (2003). Specifications were made based on references from the list below. The new northern border of the area in the European part is located on the border with forest-tundra according to data of Tolmachev (1977). We noticed further distribution of the species in the east, in the area of Lake Baikals, according to data of Malyshev & Peshkova (1979). The plant is alien and sporadically introduced to the Far East according to data of Kharkevich (1992).Data were then compiled through scanning and geo-referencing to develop a composite vector map. The biologist, together with the GIS specialist, drew a composite weed distribution area based on compiled data.
