Abstract

During a field investigation on the island of Korčula, in 2016, Eclipta prostrata (Asteraceae) was found near the village of Smokvica, in the bay of Stiniva on moist sandy and rocky parts of the bay. Although this species has already been reported by many European countries it can be considered a new alien species for the Croatian flora.
