Abstract

In Iran, Iraq, Turkey and adjacent southern parts of the U.S.S.R., four species of the genusVicia, group ofV. ciceroidea, occur, namelyV. multijuga (Boiss.)Rech. f.,V. ciceroidea Boiss.,V. rafigae Tamamšjan and the new speciesV. sojakii described here. This group of species is distinguished by its tendency to reduction of leaflets, broadening of leaf rhachis and dense branching of stems. With respect to these particular properties it is now convenient to esparate these species as a seriesCiceroideae in the sectionCracca.
