Title: Euphorbia davidii Subils (Euphorbiaceae), a new alien species in the flora of Serbia
Abstract: Euphorbia davidii Subils (Euphorbiaceae), toothed spurge, is a plant native in N-America, introduced in Europe about fifty years ago. There were no published data about the occurrence of this species in Serbia. Populations of this alien weed were noticed in 2007 in two localities in Vojvodina (Serbia) on the arable fields between the villages Aleksa Santic and Pacir (CR78) and also app. 10-12 km further between villages Pacir and Đurđin (CR88 according to 10×10 km UTM). The populations of toothed spurge were distributed in several patches, in a total area of app. 3 ha. In 2013 the area of distribution was app. 7 ha, and the abundance of this species also increased. As a new alien species in Serbia Euphorbia davidii should be further monitored, considering its invasive character and potential spreading from the site where it has been recorded.
