Abstract
Cousinia gigantoptera Rech. f. &Podl., sp. n., described from the type collection from Takhar province, has a unique broadly winged stem and cannot be placed in any of the sections (sect.Racemosae?).—C. acanthodendron, described from the type collection from Samangan province, probably belongs to sect.Actinia and is related toC. pseudactinia andC. rudis.—ForC. pseudactinia, C. rudis, andC. tirinensis new records are given.—The descriptions ofC. rudis andC. tirinensis are completed and by that the placement of the latter within sect.Pugioniferae is confirmed.
