The taxonomy and invasion status assessment of Erigeron annuus s.l. (Asteraceae) in East Fennoscandia
A common European weed of North American origin, Erigeron annuus s.l. was described by Linnaeus on the basis of plants cultivated at de Hartecamp near Haarlem, the Netherlands. This species was originally introduced to Europe from the territories along the Saint Lawrence River, south-eastern Canada,...
