Synanthropic complex of species (Potentilla L.) in Priamurye and Primorye

The article discusses the synanthropic complex of Potentilla in Priamurye and Primorye, represented by 15 species (31, 9% of all species of the silverweed in Priamuryae and Primorye). The complex consists of two groups: apophytic (local) and adventitious (introduced). The apophytic group of species of the genus Potentilla unites four representatives: P. anserina, P. norvegica, P. omissa, P. vorobievii, and the adventive one - 11 species: P. approximata, P. argentea, P. bifurca, P. canescens, P. collina, P. erecta, P. heidenreichii, P. intermedia, P. multifida, P. reptans and P. tobolensis. It is presented a summary of synanthropic representatives of the genus Potentilla in Priamurye and Primorye, where information on a general distribution of new collections in the Russian Far East, in Priamurye and Primorye; habitats and “classical locations”of species is presented. For some species, notes are given. For adventive representatives of this genus, the author indicates the factors of their rapid settlement gives the analysis of these species distribution in the study area.
