Abstract

Materials and methods: herbarium collections, literature data, field observations. Nomenclature: POWO 2023. Results: The order Primulales includes two families represented in Ukraine, Ebenaceae and Primulaceae. In the flora of Ukraine, the family Ebenaceae is represented by one genus, Diospiros. The family Primulaceae is represented by 13 genera (including those now included in Lysimachia s.l.: Anagallis, Centunculus, Glaux, Naumburgia), and 34 species and subspecies, one of which is known only from culture and sometimes escapes – Cyclamen purpurascens [C. purpurascens subsp. purpurascens], and one (Primula farinosa) is listed as extinct in the territory of Ukraine. The genus Primula includes Cortusa, which, according to molecular data, is phylogenetically rooted in Primula s.l. In Ukraine (the Carpathians), Primula matthioli (Cortusa matthioli) is represented by the typical subspecies Primula matthioli subsp. matthioli. A synonym of Primula elatior is Primula poloninensis. Primula sibthorpii, reported for the Mountain Crimea, turned out to be a synonym of the subspecies Primula vulgaris subsp. rubra, and Primula acaulis, which is considered widespread in Ukraine, is in fact a synonym of the typical subspecies Primula vulgaris subsp. vulgaris. The genus Soldanella includes four species, two of them have not been reported for Ukraine yet (Soldanella angusta, Soldanella major). In the order Ericales, there are two families in Ukraine: Actinidiaceae and Ericaceae. The family Actinidiaceae is represented by one genus Actinidia (three cultivated species). The Ericaceae family, accepted in a wide circumscription, includes 16 genera and 27 species, which previously were included in four families: Ericaceae, Empetraceae, Monotropaceae and Pyrolaceae. Monotropa hypophegea (≡ Hipopithys hypophegea) is treated as a synonym of Monotropa hypopitys. According to current data, Bruckenthalia is included in the genus Erica, Loiseleuria – in Kalmia, Ledum – in Rhododendron, Oxycoccus – in Vaccinium; accordingly, there were changes in the nomenclature of flora species of Ukraine: Erica spiculifolia (≡ Bruckenthalia spiculifolia); Kalmia procumbens (≡ Loiseleuria procumbens (L.) Desv.); Vaccinium microcarpum (≡ Oxycoccus microcarpus); Vaccinium oxycoccos L. (= Oxycoccus palustris Pers.). Vaccinium gaultherioides is recognized as a synonym of Vaccinium uliginosum, and Vaccinium vitis-idaea subsp. minus, as a synonym of Vaccinium vitis-idaea s. str.
