Abstract

The only finding of the American neophyte E. prostrata reported for Croatia so far comes from Mali Lo{inj (^ARNI & JOGAN, 1998). This paper reports for the first time finding sites in localities from [krljevo and Rijeka as well as numerous localities from Dalmatia ([ibenik and surroundings, Zadar, Trogir, Split and Makarska) which indicates that this neophyte has been spreading along the Croatian coast. The findings from [krljevo and Rijeka in 1981 indicate that E. prostrata existed in Croatia much longer than can be gathered from the data published so far.
