03D0174DA37FFFA4B34FB4CC3CF6FE18.taxon	distribution	Distribution, ecology and phenology — The species is distributed in the Greater Caucasus (common and locally abundant in its western and central parts) and the Lesser Caucasus (sporadically found from the Pontic Range in the west to the Trialeti Range in the east). It occurs in Russia (Krasnodar Krai, Adygea, Karachay-Cherkessia, North Ossetia and possibly Kabardino-Balkaria), Georgia (incl. Abkhasia and South Ossetia) and northeasternmost Turkey (Artvin and Rize) (Sennikov 2009, 2022). A point distribution map is provided in Fig. 7. In that area, the species occurs in the high-humidity montane forests to their upper limit or slightly above it, generally under the shade of Picea orientalis or Fagus L., or less often in mixed Fagus, Abies Mill., Pinus L. and elfin forest and in Rhododendron ponticum L. thickets (Kirpicznikov 1964), at altitudes of (1500 –) 1800 – 2200 (– 2500) m in the western Caucasus and (1600 –) 1900 – 2400 (– 2800) m in Georgia. In Turkey, where the species is referred to as “ Sarı eğikçiçek ” (Ekim 2012), it occurs at altitudes of 1400 – 2200 m. The species flowers from July to early September, and fruits in September.	en	Güzel, Murat Erdem, Kilian, Norbert, Sennikov, Alexander N., Coşkunçelebi, Kamil, Makbul, Serdar, Gültepe, Mutlu (2022): Caucasoseris, a new genus of subtribe Chondrillinae (Asteraceae: Cichorieae) for the enigmatic Prenanthes abietina.
