title: Drivers of floristic discovery in a temperate flora: insights from three decades of vascular plant records in Ukraine
abstract: Floristic discoveries continue to occur even in regions with a long history of botanical exploration. Ukraine, one of the largest countries in Europe, has been the subject of intensive botanical study for more than two centuries, yet new species, subspecies, and national records are still regularly documented. Understanding the ecological and methodological factors that drive these discoveries is important for improving biodiversity assessment, guiding field surveys, and updating national floras
