The systematics of the genus Crambe L. sect. Crambe is reviewed, within which 16 species and 5 infraspecific taxa are considered, which are distributed from E and N Europe to Central Asia. A key for their identification is provided, along with a brief description, synonyms, distribution and habitat of each taxon. The infrageneric systematics of Crambe is discussed briefly. The following new combinations are proposed: Crambe edentula var. glabrata (Freyn & Sintenis) Prina comb. nov. and C. orientalis subsp. sulphurea (Stapf ex O.E. Schulz) Prina stat. nov.
