80 Pinus sylvestris L.

This polymorphic, Eurasiatic species is here mapped as a single collective taxon. However, var. hamata (Stev.) Sosn. in the Black Sea-Caucasus area is mapped separately. The map is partly based on the recent map of the distribution in the Soviet Union, published in the Atlas of areas and resources of medical plants of USSR, Moscow 1976, map 148-149. Cf. also Meusel et al. 1965, map p. 21.
