Addition to the flora of Kyrgyzstan
The paper proposes new data and contributions related to distribution of some species from the family Rosaceae in Kyrgyzstan. Five species of the genus Potentilla are newly recorded for the flora of Kyrgyzstan, of which Potentilla tuvinica is a new taxon for the Tian Shan Mountain Range. One species from the genus Fragariastrum and one from the genus Sibbaldia, as well as 16 species of Potentilla have been indicated for some biogeographic regions of Kyrgyzstan for the first time. The area of distribution of Potentilla ferganensis is specified, and data on distribution of Potentilla tobolensis are supplemented. Specific habitats are reported for Potentilla exuta and Potentilla penniphylla described from Kyrgyzstan, but not included in the lists of plants growing in this territory. For each species presented, the general distribution outside Kyrgyzstan is indicated. The endemism of the genus Potentilla in the study area is analyzed. For Potentilla biflora, a nomenclature correction is provided. A map of the biogeographic regions of Kyrgyzstan is presented. It displays the distribution of the rarest Potentilla species.
