Symphyotrichum pilosum (Compositae) – New neophyte in the flora of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A new neophyte, Symphyotrichum pilosum (Willd.) G. L. Nesom was discovered in the late summer of 2024 during fieldwork in the vicinity of Zavidovići (Central Bosnia). It is native to North America, but it has been introduced to some areas beyond its natural range. This is the first record of this species for Bosnia and Herzegovina and Southeast Europe. Brief information is provided concerning this species’ distribution in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as a discussion of its status as alien and invasive in the country. Judging from the literature and observations in the field this species should be considered a casual and non-invasive species in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
