Tamamschjanella is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Apiaceae.[1]
Its native range is from Greece to Afghanistan, via Iran, the North Caucasus, Transcaucasus and Turkey.[1]
The genus name of Tamamschjanella is in honour of Sofya Georgiyevna Tamamshyan (1901–1981), a Russian-Soviet botanist and plant taxonomist noted for describing 7 genera and more than 50 species of plant.[2] It was first described and published in Bot. Zhurn. (published in Moscow & Leningrad) Vol.81 (Issue 8) on page 75 in 1996.[1]
