Vegetative characteristics

The scabioses are annual or perennial herbaceous plants . They rarely lignify at the bottom. The stems are not angular and have no spines.

The opposite leaves are undivided to pinnate. They are often in non-blooming rosettes.

Generative characteristics

The flowers are in broad, long-stalked head-shaped inflorescences , which are surrounded by one to three rows of bracts . The outer cup is up to 3 millimeters high, membranous and indistinctly serrated. Chaff leaves sit on the bottom of the head .

The flowers are hermaphroditic with a double flower envelope . The calyx usually ends in four to five bristles or teeth. The crown is unevenly five-lobed. The marginal florets are radiant.

The fruits are nut-like, cylindrical, single-seeded closing fruits with eight furrows.

etymology

Before Linnaeus, the name was used to denote several genera with blue, heady inflorescences. The origin and meaning of this name is unclear. It is often derived from the Latin scabies = scabies , skin rash, eczema, from scabere = 'to scratch'. The common names Grindkraut and Krätzkraut also come from this use, which however only referred to Knautia arvensis .

The genus Scabiosa was 1753 by Linnaeus in Species Plantarum , vol 1, page 98, first published . A synonym for Scabiosa L. is Asterocephalus tin . Some species have been separated into other genera.

The approximately 30 species of the genus Scabiosa s. st. are widespread in East Asia , from East to South Africa and in the Mediterranean region. About 20 occur in Europe. Come in Central Europe: Gray or fragrance Skabiose ( Scabiosa canescens ), Doves Skabiose ( Scabiosa columbaria ), Krainer Skabiose ( Scabiosa cinerea subsp. Hladnikiana ), gloss Skabiose ( Scabiosa lucida ), Yellow Pincushion flower ( Scabiosa ochroleuca ) and Southern Skabiose ( Scabiosa triandra ).

The genus Scabiosa s. st. contains about 30 ( Scabiosa sl up to 100) species .:

No longer to Scabiosa L. , but to the genus Lomelosia Raf. are expected u. a. the following types:

  • Lomelosia caucasica (M.Bieb.) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa caucasica M.Bieb.
  • Lomelosia crenata (Cirillo) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa crenata Cirillo : It occurs in the Mediterranean area.
  • Crete scabiosis ( Lomelosia cretica (L.) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa cretica L. ): It occurs in Italy, Sicily and the Balearic Islands.
  • Grass-leaved scabiosis ( Lomelosia graminifolia (L.) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa graminifolia L. ): It occurs in southern Europe.
  • Lomelosia micrantha (Desf.) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa micrantha Desf. : The home is Southeast and Eastern Europe as well as West to Central Asia .
  • Lomelosia pulsatilloides (Boiss.) Greuter & Burdet , Syn .: Scabiosa pulsatilloides Boiss. : The two subspecies occur only in Spain.

The following species are no longer included in Scabiosa but in Pseudoscabiosa Devesa :

No longer to Scabiosa but to the genus Sixalix Raf. The types are calculated (selection):
