Znamianka is a town in Kirovohrad Oblast in central Ukraine. It grew as a major railway junction beside the woodlands of the Chornyi Lis area.
Notes
The national Ukrainian romanization omits the apostrophe. The original-script name retains it; typographic apostrophe normalization is not a renaming. The input uses a straight apostrophe; local_name uses a typographic apostrophe.
