R. pallasii Fisch. & Mey., Ind. Sem. Hort. Petrop. 4:46 (1837). Ic: Fl. URSS 14: t. 37 f. 2 (1949). Figure 16, p. 529. Map 59, p. 535.   Shrub 1-3 m, branches alternate, young spines glabrous or puberulous, brown. Leaf lamina linear-oblanceolate, 20-30 x 4-6 mm, remotely crenate-serrulate or rarely subentire, puberulous or glabrous on both sides, attenuated into a short petiole. Fruiting pedicels c. 5 mm. Disc glabrous. Fruit 4-5 mm diam.; seed with a bifid groove. Fl. 5. Rocky slopes, 450-1600 m.   Syntypes: [Caucasia, N. Iran] in promontorio Caucasico, in Iberia, ad mare Caspium, in altioribus montibus Talüsch, nec non in Persia boreali (BM!) A7 Gümüşane: nr. Gümüşane, Sint. 1894: 5530! A8 Gümüşane: Bayburt, Bourgeau. Çoruh: Çoruh gorge between Artvin and Ardahan, 450 m, D. 30048! A9 Çoruh: Ardanuç, 500 m, D. 30173! Kars: Kars to Göle, 10 km S of Karin-cadüzü, 1600 m, Mutlu! B7 Erzincan: Akdağ, Balls 1510! B8 Erzurum: Tercan to Selepür, 1400 m, D. 30957! B9 Kars: nr. Kağizman (Grossheim 6: map 148). B10 Kars: Aralykh to Takjalty in Aras plain, 9 viii 1910, B. Post!   Transcaucasia, N., N.W. & W. Iran. Distinguished from all other Turkish species by its long narrow leaves. R. medwedewii M. Sachok. (R. pallasii var. araratica Medw.), recorded from Ararat (Grossheim 6: map 149), is probably conspecific. Grubov (op. cit.) treats the variable R. spathulifolius Fisch. & Mey. as a hybrid between R. pallasii and R. catharticus. It has been recorded from B9 Kars: Kağizman (Grossheim 6: map 150).
