Abstract

Chromosome numbers are reported for 20 collections of Mongolian plants representing 19 taxa. The first chromosome records are reported forArabidopsis mongolica (2n=16),Caragana pygmaea (2n=16),Isatis costata var.leiocarpa (2n=28),Lophanthus chinensis (2n=18) andStevenia cheiranthoides (2n=32). Counts partly differing from those previously recorded are given forBatrachium trichophyllum subsp.trichophyllum (2n=32+0-2B, 36+6B),Cuscuta chinensis (2n=60),Dracocephalum fragile (2n=72) andErysimum flavum (2n=14). Chromosome numbers of the following taxa were confirmed:Astragalus monophyllus (2n=16),Erodium stephanianum (2n=16),Gastrolychnis apetala (2n=24),Geum aleppicum (2n=42),Linum baicalense (2n=18),Rorippa palustris (2n=32),Rubia cordifolia subsp.pratensis (2n=22),Schizonepeta multifida (2n=12),Tribulus terrestris (2n=36) andVicia cracca (2n=14). Taxonomic remarks onArabidopsis mongolia, Erysimum flavum, Stevenia cheiranthoides andVicia cracca are added. A new combinationArabidopsis mongolica (Botsch.)Měsíček & Soják is proposed.
