Silene wolgensis (Hornemann) Otth in de Candolle, Prodr. 1: 370. 1824. ∑¸∂˚º””¨◊”≤› fu er jia ying zi cao Viscago wolgensis Hornemann, Suppl. Hort. Bot. Hafn. 48. 1819; Silene otites (Linnaeus) Wibel var. wolgensis (Horne-mann) Rohrbach. Herbs biennial, 40–80 cm tall. Roots robust, lignified. Stems solitary, sparsely branched, erect, basally hirtellous, apically glabrous, sometimes viscid. Basal and proximal cauline leaves spatulate, 8–10 cm × 5–10 mm, both surfaces pubescent, ciliate at margin, midvein prominent, base attenuate into long petiole, apex acute; distal leaves linear-lanceolate. Flowers in a racemiform thyrse with many flowered cymules. Pedicel ca. 1.5 × as long as calyx, rarely shorter, slender, glabrous; bracts triangular-lanceolate, membranous. Calyx campanulate, 3–3.5 mm, glabrous, longitudinal veins inconspicuous. Androgyno-phore very short or absent. Petals white, ± linear, ca. 5 mm, claws glabrous, limbs entire. Coronal scales absent. Stamens slightly exserted; filaments glabrous. Capsule ellipsoid, 4–6 mm, slightly longer than calyx. Seeds dark brown, reniform, ca. 1 mm. Fl. Jul–Aug, fr. Aug–Sep. 2n = 24. Dry steppes, stony mountain grasslands; 1100–1400 m. Xinjiang [C Asia, Europe]. Male and female plants of species nos. 29–31 may differ con-siderably, both in vegetative and floral parts. An understanding of this variation is desirable in order to attain a useful taxonomy of this group.
