''Corydalis nobilis'' (Siberian corydalis) is a perennial plant native to Siberia, Xinjiang and Kazakhstan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxon.pl?408086 )〕 It was introduced to Europe by Linnaeus, who had asked his friend Erich Laxmann for seeds of ''Lamprocapnos spectabilis'' (old-fashioned bleeding heart), but was sent seeds of ''C. nobilis'' instead. Both ''Lamprocampnos'' and ''Corydalis'' are members of the Papaveraceae family, with seeds having an attached elaiosome that makes them attractive to ants, which disperse the seeds. ==Description== ''C. nobilis'' bears its compact cymose inflorescence on a stem that can be as tall as 50 cm.〔 The stem is upright. Leaves are pinnate. Its flowers are yellow or orange; inner petals have dark violet at the top.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eol.org/pages/2906177 )〕 The individual flowers resemble small snapdragons. The seeds of ''C. nobilis'' typically have elaiosomes (a fatty body attached to the seed but not part of it, which can be eaten by ants without harming the seed within.) Seeds of ''C. nobilis'' are dispersed by ants, who carry seeds away to feed on the elaiosomes. Myrmecochory (seed dispersal by ants) is also observed in other Fumariaceae and has evolved independently in many other plant genera as well.
