Despite the wide amount of scientific contributions published on alien plant species, their diffusion dynamics, and interactions with native taxa, it is increasingly difficult to slow down spreading negative impact habitats. Last recent years, in fact, a sharp rise number new taxa introduced Italy Europe has been recorded. The aim this work investigate most Italian territory order verify whether alarming trend still underway. Specimen collections and/or observations plants have performed as...

In this contribution, new data concerning the distribution of vascular flora alien to Italy are presented. It includes records, confirmations, and status changes for or Italian administrative regions. Nomenclatural updates, published elsewhere, corrections provided as Suppl. material 1.
Recent field investigations, performed across some of the less floristically known sectors Calabria, have led to discovery Salsola tragus and Thymelaea gussonei, two new species for regional vascular flora. By providing crucial biogeographical taxonomic remarks, this work aims contribute improvement knowledge rich, diversified still poorly native flora Calabria. The value these findings underlines decisive role survey in enhancement information on biodiversity, essential basis every further...
