Abstract

The first occurrence of Sporobolus indicus in Hungary is reported. The neotropical S. indicus is one of the oldest introduced neophytes to Europe. From the middle of the 19th century until the last decade of the 20th century, apart from a few occasional occurrences, it expanded only in the Mediterranean area. However, the number of observa- tions has dramatically increased in the past two decades, even outside the Mediterranean region. Its recent rapid spread is evident along roads, on lawns and in tourist places subject to trampling (e.g., campsites). Tourism certainly contrib- utes to the very successful recent diffusion of the species. Still, global warming, including the increasingly mild winters in continental Europe, can certainly enhance the establishment and further dispersal of this cold sensitive species.
