513.3237 Genus Centaurea L.; Sp. Pl. 2: 909 (1753)
Distribution: mostly Europe, Mediterranean and W-Asia, few E-Asia, trop. Africa. Circumscription of species (vs. subspecies) is fairly controversial. Separation of Cyanus as genus is not accepted by Kubitzki (Vol. VIII). Hyalaea might deserve separate genus status.
