  • Ecology of Naturalized Invasive Species Lindernia Dubia (L.) Pennell in the Netherlands
    Gorteria – Dutch Botanical Archives 40, 2018: 001 – 010 ISSN (online) 2542-8578 INVASIVE SPECIES IN THE NETHERLANDS Ecology of naturalized invasive species Lindernia dubia (L.) Pennell in the Netherlands E. L. A. N. Simons1 2, M. G. M. Jansen3 Key words Abstract – Lindernia dubia (L.) Pennell, a North American species, is still a rare and ephemerical neophyte in the Netherlands, but is invading the country rapidly now. We expect it to become a threat to plant biodiversity in Lindernia dubia Dutch wetlands. To describe its ecological and phytosociological position and assess its possible risk status we investigated known sites in the Netherlands. invasive alien species Being a pioneer species on open, muddy soil, more or less rich in nutrients, more or less acid, it occurs in different phytosociology phytosociological classes: Littorelletea uniflorae, Phragmitetea, Isoeto-Nanojuncetea and Bidentetea tripartitae. We wetlands consider the species as possibly harmfull to vegetations belonging to the Littorelletea uniflorae and some associations Littorelletea uniflorae of the Isoeto-Nanojuncetea, as those vegetations are already threatened by drainage and athmospheric deposition of nitrogen; they contain several species of the Dutch Red list for vascular plants and the size and growth rate of Isoeto-Nanojuncetea many characteristic plants makes them vulnerable to out-competing by Lindernia dubia. Bidentetea tripartitae Samenvatting – Schijngenadekruid (Lindernia dubia (L.) Pennell; Fig. 1, 2) is een kleine eenjarige plant, behorend tot een eigen familie (Fischer et al. 2013), de Linderniaceae, die nauw verwant is aan de Gratiolaceae en Plantagina- ceae en vroeger werd geplaatst in de Scrophulariaceae s.l. De plant is haarloos en vormt geen rozet, groeit liggend tot opstijgend, met op doorsnede vierkante stengels tot 20 cm lang.

Its description, illustration, distribution and habitat notes are pro- vided. The taxonomic identity of Lindernia nelliyampathiensis, a recently described new species from India is discussed. Since it is closely matching with L. dubia, here we synonymize L. nelliyampathiensis under L. dubia. Introduction The genus Lindernia sensu lato Allioni (1766: 178.t5) represents about 31 taxa in India (Mukherjee 1945, Sivarajan & Mathew 1983, Sivarajan 1983, Murugan et al. 2002, Tandyekkal & Mohanan 2010, Ratheesh Narayanan et al. 2012, Prasad & Sunojkumar 2014, Prasad et al. 2014). The generic circumscription of Lindernia s. l. was recently revised by Fischer et al. (2013) based on phylogenetic study of the family Linderniaceae and they resurrected the old genera Bonnaya Link & Otto (1821: 25) and Vandellia Linnaeus (1767: 384) together with Lindernia sensu stricto and a new genus Linderniella Fischer et al. (2013: 209). The genus Lindernia s. str. is characterized by its palmately 3−5 veined ovate or ovate-linear leaves with entire or slightly dentate margin, often with cleistogamous flowers, in having 2 or sometime 4 fertile stamens, abaxial stamens usually reduced to staminodes, seeds with non-alveolate endosperm and smooth surface.

(2015): Occurrence of Lindernia dubia in the Ipoly valley (Hungary and Slovakia). – Studia bot. hung. 46(1): 77–89. Abstract: A survey for invasive alien species was carried out along the Ipoly River (Danube catch- ment area) at the border between Hungary and Slovakia in 2010 and 2011. Lindernia dubia was found in three locations on both sides of the river. Th e paper gives the fi rst record of the species in the Ipoly (Ipel’) Catchment Area (Hungary and Slovakia), previously, the species has not been reported from the Matricum fl ora district of Hungary. Th is paper describes the newly discovered localities (status of phenology, accompanied species, ecological and hydrological conditions, etc.). It also explains the spread and possible regional origin of the species. Th e recent CEU-based distri- bution map is also presented. Key words: alien plant, fl ora of Central Europe, Lindernia dubia, Ipoly Catchment, Hungary, Slo- vakia INTRODUCTION Floodplains are one of the most invaded habitats, mostly due to their “land- scape sink” position. Th e infl owing debris, fl ooding, continuous propagules and disturbances have a signifi cant role in the spreading of invasive alien plant spe- cies (Zedler and Kercher 2004). Th e most successful alien species invade new habitats along watercourses (Pyšek and Prach 1993).

  • An Updated Taxonomy of the Family Linderniaceae in Korea

Abstract In the present study, according to morphological observations followed by recent circumscriptions, we have classified the Korean taxa of the family Linderniaceae into Scrophulariaceae sensu lato has been considered in several works, though the taxa have remained undefined because identification work was mostly done according to vegetative morphological features, such as the leaf shape, leaf margins, and leaf venation. The taxa of Linderniaceae are mostly considered to be weeds and, for correct identification, it is necessary to clarify their taxonomic characteristics. Morphological studies were carried out using samples collected in the field. Micro-morphological observations of the vegetative and floral parts were also performed using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We concluded that important characteristics are reproductive morphologies viz. calyx, stamen structure, capsule shape, calyx ratio with capsule, inflorescence morphology, and seed morphology. As a result, we formulated taxa descriptions and provided a key of the genera of Linderniaceae in Korea. Lindernia crustacea (L.) F. Muell. is transferred to Torenia crustacea (L.) Cham. & Schltdl.

A total of 166 vascular plants (159 species, three subspecies, three varieties, and one cultivar) belonging to 132 genera and 59 families were found, accounting for 8.3% of 1,996 vascular plant species found in Seoul. Thero- phyte was the most common life-form of plants in Heonilleung Wetland. As for rare plant species, one Least Concern (LC) species was found. There were 15 floristic regional indicator species in the research area. Three of them belonged to floristic grades III and IV. This indicates that their habitats are discontinuous and isolated to some degree. Nineteen invasive alien plant species were found, most of which were introduced from North America after the year 1964 with a spread rate of V (widespread, WS).
