  • Comment on (A): Blackstonia perfoliata (L.) Huds., yellow wort, Durchwachsener Bitterling

    Cf. Hunger (1935,167): Ch. V: CENTAURIA MAIOR = Chlora perfoliata.

  • Comment on (B): Centaurea L., knapweed, a species of ~, Flockenblume, eine Art von ~

    Centaurea centaurium L., as suggested by D'Aronco (1998,51) and Van Arsdall (2000,165), was not native to Western Europe (it is an inhabitant of Southern Italy only) and, therefore, was substituted with similar Centaurea species like Centaurea cyanus L.; cornflower; Kornblume; Centaurea nigra L.; black knapweed / iron-head, Schwarze Flockenblume; Centaurea jacea L.; brown knapweed; Gemeine Flockenblume.[1]
