Jacobaea vulgaris Gaertn. subsp. gotlandica (Neum.) B. Nord. was regarded as endemic to the Swedish islands Öland and Gotland. However, recent research of diagnostic characters which define infraspecific taxa within the J. vulgaris group revealed that J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica is more widespread in Europe (Russia, Austria and Greece) than previously thought. By revision of herbarium specimens of the J. vulgaris group from herbarium collections BEOU, CAME and APP it is confirmed that J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica grows also in Italy and Montenegro, which represent new subspecies for these two countries.

Abstract
Jacobaea vulgaris Gaertn. subsp. gotlandica (Neum.) B. Nord. was regarded as endemic to the Swedish islands Öland and Gotland. However, recent research of diagnostic characters which define infraspecific taxa within the J. vulgaris group revealed that J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica is more widespread in Europe (Russia, Austria and Greece) than previously thought. By revision of herbarium specimens of the J. vulgaris group from herbarium collections BEOU, CAME and APP it is confirmed that J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica grows also in Italy and Montenegro, which represent new subspecies for these two countries. In this paper we present detailed chorological data as well as a distribution map of J. vulgaris subsp. gotlandica in the Apennine and the Balkan peninsula.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
