  • Floral-scent-families and floral-odour-families, a classification for floral scents. The classification “floral-scent-families and floral-odour-families” puts floral scents sharing the same dominant scent-component together into groups, named floral-scent- or floral-odour-family. Each floral-scent- or floral-odour family is clearly referenced by a common odorant of our everyday life. Floral-scent-families refer to odorants of plant origin and floral-odour-families to odorants of mostly animal origin. As the scent description shall be used additionally to pure morphological species description by amateurs as well as botanists, the instrument for the scent investigation is the human nose, since the human scent perception leads to the description of the dominant scent component. Up to now approximately 200 floral scents of the Austrian flora were grouped into 47 floral-scent-families and -subfamilies and 16 floral-odour-families respectively. During field work it was noticed that many species change their scent due to a specific parameter. Therefore the second part of the results and discussion introduces a new floral scent attribute, the scent-behaviour. It describes the scent-uniformity or scent-variability of a species. The scent-variability indicates that a species develops at least two different scents. There are seven groups of scent variability: five representing scent-switching species and two groups for scent-polymorphic species. uploaded for Neilreichia by Plazi
