Notes

Euro+Med (https://europlusmed.org/cdm_dataportal/taxon/c8c99844-6aae-47fe-9652-31b79a864157, accessed on 06.06.2023) considers R. malinovskii as a synonym for R. acris L. Indeed, R. malinovskii and R. acris are morphologically similar, but R. malinovskii differs by smaller habitus, developed rhizome, weak pubescence of the leaves and stem and longer beak of the fruits ( Visjulina 1953, Jelenevsky and Derviz-Sokolova 1986, Chopyk and Fedoronchuk 2015).

Some plants from the higher altitudes in the Ukrainian Carpathians were identified as R. kladnii Shur. CoL (https://www.catalogueoflife.org/data/taxon/4RHQG, accessed on 06.06.2023), POWO (https://powo.science.kew.org/taxon/713807-1), WFO (https://list.worldfloraonline.org/wfo-0000462207, accessed on 06.06.2023), Euro+Med (https://europlusmed.org/cdm_dataportal/taxon/61b4424b-1bc9-4ee8-8cda-c5b9d6f5f7d8, accessed on 06.06.2023) and Worldplants (https://www.worldplants.de/world-plants-complete-list/complete-plant-list?name=Ranunculus-serbicus, accessed on 07.06.2023) synonymise R. kladnii with R. serbicus Vis. GBIF (https://www.gbif.org/species/7277719, accessed on 06.06.2023), instead, considers R. kladnii to be a synonym for Ranunculus acris subsp. acris . However, Jelenevsky and Derviz-Sokolova (1986) pointed out that the mentioned plants from higher altitudes differ from those described by Schur as R. kladnii . Jelenevsky and Derviz-Sokolova (1986) also found these plants to be different from R. acris and R. serbicus and, as a result, proposed a new name - R. malinovskii. Hence, all specimens from the Ukrainian Carpathians, identified as R. kladnii , appeared to be R. malinovskii ( Tzvelev 2001, Chopyk and Fedoronchuk 2015).
