THE CONTINENTAL FLORA OF SOUTH SWEDEN 397 



Holosleum umbellatum L. • — • S. Russia; in N. to Vol. (53), Kiev (53), Polt. (70), 

 Khark. (8, 77), Kursk (70), Sarat. (70). — Distrib. over almost the whole of S., SW. 

 and C. Europe; Gr. l!rit.: o. It is in a high degree spread by human agency, espe- 

 cially in the Baltic region. — D. T. 1: 4. 



[haiis tinctoria L.] — This species, in former days cultivated in large parts of S. 

 and C. Europe, is widely spread as a real native in the Pontic and Oriental regions. 

 In certain sections of the shores of the S. part of the Baltic Sea it occurs, as it seems, 

 as a spontaneus plant (cf. above p. 325). These occur., however, may also be looked 

 upon as created by a fugitiveness from cultivation. — As especially Hartman has 

 pointed out (in Skandinaviens Flora, 1879, P- ^97)) ^^e Isatis-form, »I. maritima 

 Ruprecht» [in Flora Caucasica, Mem. d. I'Akad. d. scienc. de St. Petersbourg Ser. 

 vii, T. XV N:o 2, 1869, p, 133] is not distinguishable from the S. Russian type 

 (cf. Conspectus Fenn. Vol. iii, Pars ii, p. 390). 



Koeleria glaiica (Schkuhr) DC. — S. and M. Russia; accord, to Domin (1907), in 

 N. to Novg., Pskov, Mogil., Moscow, Vladim., Kaz., and Perm. — Distrib. westwards in 

 the Baltic to the W. coast of Jutl. and East Friesland. In C. and S. Germ, very rare. 

 It occurs isolated in some places in France, accord, to Domin in Charente-Inferieure 

 and Calvados and at Paris (as a colonist?). — • D. T. II: 3. Also V. T. 2. 



Medicago falcata L. — S. and M. Russia; in N. to Esth., Pskov (18), Tver, Yarosl., 

 Vladim. (13), Niz. Novg. (77), S. Vyatka, S. Perm. — Gr. Brit., Belg. and Holl.: o. 

 In NW. Germ, only a few occurr., chiefly as an alien. In Denm. it occurs in NE. 

 Jutl. and on the islands. In Skane and SE. Swed., in N. to C. Uppland. — Outside 

 the steppe distr. the species is in a high degree spread by man's activity; in SW. 

 Europe and in the Subatlantic province it is in general to be looked upon as an in- 

 troduced plant. — D. T. II: 2. Also V. T. i:c. 



[Medicago viinima Desr.] — Cauc, — S. Russia: Pod. (70), Kiev (70), Khers. (70), 

 Ekaterinosl. (5, 70), Taur. (70, 71), Stavrop., Pensa. — Abundantly distrib. as a steppe 

 plant in the Danubian region. Throughout S. and C. Europe; its NW. limit runs through 

 SE-most Engl., Belg. and Holl. (I, chiefly as a colonist), NW. Germ, (in NW to: the 

 Rhine-Province, the region of the lower Main, Wetzlar, the SE. Harz, Neuhaldensleben, 

 Tangermiinde, Nauen, Neustrelitz, Neubrandenburg, Malchin, Biitzow, Riigen), Dan. Isl., 

 E. Skane I, Oland I, Gotl. I, NE. Germ, on the lower Vistula. — Perhaps the species 

 should most properly be referred to a South and Central pAiropean distrib. type. 



\l\lelampyriim an^ense L.] — Seems to be rather common in the SE. European steppe 

 distr. as a real native. In the Sarmatian province it also occurs in the same way, but 

 it is often met with as an anthropochorous plant, e. g. a weed-plant; further in the 

 W. it occurs only in the last-mentioned way. (Cf. p. 294.) 



Mclica ciliata L. — In my conception of this species I follow Ascherson & Graebner. 

 Hence M. nebrodensis Pari, and M. fallax Schult. are synonyms. — S. and SE. Russia; 

 in N. to Volh.: Shitomir (53), Kiev (53), Polt. (70), Khark. (8), [Orel (70), Kursk (70), 

 Tula (70)], Tamb. (42), Sarat. (24), Simb., NE. Kaz., S. Perm. — Throughout C. 

 Europe; in C. France to Seine-et-Infer. in N.; SE. Belg. Lacking in the Baltic region, 

 except SE. Swed. (see Plate 10) and (Courl?) Esth. — D. T. I: 4. 



Oxytropis pilosa (L.) DC. — S. and SE. Russia; in N. to [Grodno and Minsk? 

 (53)] Bessar. (53), S. Pod. (53), S. Kiev (53), Polt. (53), Kursk: Kasatz (2), Orel (53), 

 Tula (70), Ryaz., Pensa (75), Niz. Novg. (77), Kaz., S. Vyatka, C. Perm. — Outside 

 the Pontic prov. in general rare; in C. Europe and in Cassub. a few minor areas or 

 isolat. occurr. In W. to SE. France. I [in Isere, Hautes Alpes, Savoie, Basses Alpes,
