Abstract

The article systematically examines 85 species of astragalus gathered among 2 sorts
of Fabaceae Lindl. family: Astracantha Podlech and Astragalus L. which are spread in the area of
Nakhchivan AR, and their development and formation in the historical-evolutionary process and
their areal types are shown in the article. It has been known that most of the existing types of
Astracantha and Astragalus are included into classes and groups as Atropatan, Northern İran, Asia
Minor Front Asia. The investigation of geographical elements, their groups and classes makes it
possible to learn out the flora genetically or historically, to be more true, to learn out the ways, the
time and the place where the types have come from to this area.
