Catalogue summary
A four-year survey of 37 Yerevan market locations combines interviews, photographs, and voucher specimens to document wild plants and fungi offered for food, medicine, decoration, wood, and pest control. The study records extensive local diversity, including fermented products and several species not previously reported in major food or ethnobotanical references.
Why this matters
It preserves detailed evidence of contemporary Armenian plant knowledge and market practice while giving researchers a specimen-based foundation for comparing foodways, medicine, and biodiversity across the Caucasus.
