Abstract

We provide new data about alien plants new or poorly known in Catalonia. Fifteen taxa are first reported from Catalonia: Abies cephalonica, Abies nordmanniana, Allium tuberosum, Cotoneaster zabelii, Erodium ×variabile, Jasminum mesnyii, Larix decidua, Limonium caesium, Malus toringo, Pistacia vera, Puschkinia scilloides, Pyracantha crenulata, Robinia viscosa, Thuja plicata and Viburnum rhytidophyllum. Three other plants were already known, but were confused with similar taxa: Gaillardia ×grandiflora, Juglans ×intermedia and Salvia lavandulifolia subsp. gallica. Local naturalisation of Berberis julianae, Cotoneaster divaricatus and Elaeagnus angustifolia –three species previously known as casual aliens– is confirmed.
