During the Danish scientific expedition to Asia Media in the 

 years 1898 — 1899 the botanist, Mag. sc. Ove Paulsen brought 

 home a very large collection of plants especially from Pamir. The 

 Ranunculaceae of his collection were given me for determination, 

 and I publish here the result of my researches. The species are 

 33 in number, of which one Ranuncutus is ué\v. 



It is not easy to determine plants from Asia because it is 

 very difficult to use the Russian literature ; there are numerous 

 small lists scattered in various papers, some of which are written 

 in Russian language and others are not present in the libraries of 

 Copenhagen, But we have rather large collections from Asia 

 Media in the Herbarium of the Botanic Museum at Copenhagen, so 

 that I think my determinations will prove to be almost correct. 



In the following list I have quoted the principal lists from 

 Asia Media as well as the floras of Ledebour, Hooker & 

 Thomson and of Boissier after the name of the species.
