Floristic records of native taxa Aethusa cynapium L. subsp. cynapium (Apiaceae) − CAM: Subspecies to be excluded from the flora of Campania. Notulae to the Italian native vascular flora: 20 91 Aethusa cynapium L. subsp. elata (J.Friedl. ex Hoffm.) Schübl. & G.Martens (Apiaceae) ? CAM: Subspecies doubtfully occurring in Campania. 0 LAZ: Subspecies to be confirmed for Lazio. In the framework of the botanical voyages for the Flora napolitana project, Casale and Gussone (1811a) reported “Aethusa cynapium” for the province of Avellino. All the following reports for the same area (Casale 1901, under the name A. cynapium; Fiori 1925, under the name A. cynapium var. domestica Wallr.; Pignatti 1982), very likely also that in Cassitto (1837, under the name A. cynapium), are based on them. The same authors reported A. cynapium also for the cultivated and hilly places of the District of Castellammare (Peninsula of Sorrento) (Casale and Gussone 1811b). Therefore Tenore (1811: XIX) listed A. cynapium without any further detail first for the Kingdom of Naples and later for the province of Naples (Tenore 1823). Later, he became aware that the previous indications were to be referred to A. cynapium subsp. elata instead (Tenore 1824−1829, under the name A. cynapioides). However, he reported this taxon only for northern Abruzzo (based on Gussone 1826). Then, Tenore (1831) did not report anymore A. cynapium for the Kingdom and added to the localities of A. cynapioides also Mt. S. Angelo di Castellammare (Peninsula of Sorrento) (cf. Paoletti 1900; indication not received by Bartolucci et al. 2024). Finally, he recognized the typical A. cynapium in a plant gathered in present-day Lazio (Picinisco, Frosinone) (Tenore 1835−1838). None of the two subspecies has been observed anymore in Campania, and, for example, the indication from the Peninsula was considered as erroneous already by Guadagno (Sched. G780, NAP). In NAP only two specimens are present in Tenore’s collection, both originating from the Botanical Garden of Naples. In the “Gussone Generale” collection, there are no specimens of A. cynapium subsp. cynapium from Italy and none A. cynapium subsp. elata from modern Campania. On the contrary, a sample collected in 1834 in the same place in Lazio cited by Tenore (1835–1838) for A. cynapium, was correctly labelled by Gussone as A. cynapioides (NAP0007046) and so reported in Tenore and Gussone (1843).

Mascia, Det. F. Mascia & C. Angiolini (FI, SIENA). – Species confirmed for the flora of Toscana. This species is reported for Toscana (Bartolucci et al. 2024); however, the related records mostly refer to historical findings, and only two recent records exist for the Fabrizio Bartolucci et al. / Italian Botanist 20: 89–107 (2025) 94 Province of Prato (Stampi 1967; Gestri 2009), one of which is considered doubtful (Peruzzi and Bedini 2013). In both cases, subsequent floristic studies for the same locations did not confirm the presence of the species (Gestri and Peruzzi 2016; Gestri and Lazzeri 2021). No recent herbarium specimens are available at FI herbarium. The present finding represents the unique recent record supported by herbarium specimens confirming the occurrence of the species in the regional territory. F. Mascia, C. Angiolini Crepis neglecta L. subsp. corymbosa (Ten.) Nyman (Asteraceae) + LAZ: Ceprano (Frosinone) (WGS84: 41.552337°N, 13.457593°E), schiarita all’interno del querceto di Via Comuni, suolo arenaceo, 137 m, 11 May 2024, Leg. F. Minutillo, G. Tondi, Det. F. Minutillo (FI; Herb. Tondi). – Subspecies new for the flora of Lazio. F. Minutillo, G. Tondi Elatine brochonii Clavaud (Elatinaceae) + ITALIA (SAR): La Maddalena (Sassari), Caprera, Fosso Stefano (WGS84: 41.219087°N, 9,464109°E), rive sabbiose di bacino artificiale, Leg. A. Ruggero, A. Di Giacomo, Det. A. Ruggero, G. Bacchetta (CAG). – Species new for the Italian flora (Sardegna). This species is native to the Mediterranean-Atlantic area, and is characterized by small and limited populations in Algeria (de Bélair 2005; Rhazi et al. 2007), Corsica (Lorenzoni and Paradis 1997; Delage and Hugot 2020), continental France (Chammard et al. 2019), Morocco (Rhazi et al. 2007), Portugal (Porto et al. 2012) and Spain (Cirujano and Velayos 1996; Benito Alonso 2010; Lopez Udias and Fabregat Llueca 2011). The only population found in Sardegna grows on the banks of an artificial reservoir and appears in late spring, when the freshwater surface area shrinks, leaving large portions free for the development of hygrophilous and heliophilous therophytic vegetation belonging to the Isoëtion Br.-Bl. 1936 alliance, and more specifically to the Elatino brochonii-Juncetum pygmaei Lorenzoni & Paradis ex Benito Alonso 2010 association (Reymann et al. 2016). Elatine brochonii colonises wet sands just above the water level, in a small corner of the reservoir. G. Bacchetta, A. Ruggero Filago congesta Guss. ex DC. (Asteraceae) + SAR: Cagliari, promontorio di Cala Mosca, sul sentiero per la Sella del Diavolo (WGS84: 39.183661°N, 9.157292°E), 50–80 m s.l.m., 30 March 2025, G. Calvia (FI, Herbarium Calvia). – Species confirmed for the flora of Sardegna. This species was reported in Sardegna by Fiori (1927), who referred to a herbarium specimen collected by Marcucci in 1866 on the hill of Bonaria (Cagliari), preserved in FI. Later, Arrigoni (2015) considered it as possibly extinct on the island, and Bartolucci et al. (2018, 2024) did not confirm its presence. However, this species still persists on the calcareous hills of Cagliari, particularly in areas such as Monte Urpinu and Capo Sant’Elia, in barren and open habitats, where it sometimes grows alongside F. pygmaea. G. Calvia, F. Mascia Notulae to the Italian native vascular flora: 20 95 Gagea minima (L.) Ker Gawl. (Liliaceae) + ABR: Rocca di Mezzo (L’Aquila), V. di Fùndoli (WGS84: 42.184331°N, 13.557976°E), radure e margine faggeta, 1378 m, 2 May 2025, F. Bartolucci (APP No. 73371; FI). – Species new for the flora of Abruzzo. F. Bartolucci, F. Conti Lamium bifidum Cirillo subsp. bifidum (Lamiaceae) + VEN: Villorba (Treviso) (WGS84: 45.74955°N, 12.21524°E), nitrophilous margin of a hedge, mainly composed of Sambucus nigra and Robinia pseudoacacia, along a road; the site is in the high venetian plain area characterized by low naturalness, high population density and intensive agriculture, 54 m a.s.l., 23 March 2025, Leg. K. Zanatta, Det. K. Zanatta, J. Nascimbene (FI; Herb. Zanatta). – Subspecies new for the flora of Veneto. This species has a Steno-Mediterranean distribution and an almost ruderal ecology. Both climate warming and human disturbance could have favored its northward migration in Italy. K. Zanatta, J. Nascimbene Lappula squarrosa (Retz.) Dumort. (Boraginaceae) + TOS: Firenze (Firenze), Via Romana all’incrocio con Via de’ Mori (WGS84: 43.763193°N, 11.244352°E), spigolo tra il muro e la strada, 90 m, 8 May 2025, F. Selvi (FI). – Species confirmed for the flora of Toscana. In the locality here reported, a few plants of this species were growing on the sidewalk close to a wall of Giardino Corsi. The only known collection of this species from Toscana dates back to 1876 (29 July 1876, A. Mori, MOD) and comes from “Boscolungo” a locality near Abetone in the northern Apennines (province of Pistoia). In the 19th century, this species was sporadically observed in some other localities of the Tuscan Apennines (Lunigiana, Garfagnana), around Lucca and Firenze and possibly upper Maremma, but it was considered possibly extinct in the region (Selvi and Cecchi in Arrigoni 2019) and hence not confirmed by Bartolucci et al. (2024). The present finding is thus a confirmation of the species for the Tuscan flora, though the presence in the historical center of Firenze is most likely casual, of uncertain origin and not stable. F. Coltri, F. Selvi Lisymachia monellii (L.) U.Manns & Anderb. (Primulaceae) − SAR: Species to be excluded from the flora of Sardegna. This species has been reported in Sardegna since Moris (1827), being widely present in the Sassarese and, in particular, in the Iglesiente and on the island of S. Pietro. Both redflowered and blue-flowered specimens have been reported under this epithet, as this trait was considered part of intraspecific variation. However, molecular analyses by Jiménez-López et al. (2022) have demonstrated that the two-colour typologies constitute independent Fabrizio Bartolucci et al. / Italian Botanist 20: 89–107 (2025) 96 species: L. monellii (blue flowers) and L. collina (Schousb.) F.J.Jiménez López (red flowers). Only red-flowered individuals are present in Sardegna, which therefore refer to L. collina. M. Fois, L. Podda Plantago altissima L.

Nota (FI). – Species confirmed for the flora of Piemonte. This species was reported in Piemonte as an erroneous record (Bartolucci et al. 2024). The present finding at the described locality, along with another site in the municipality of Alto (WGS84: 44.108629°N, 7.995099°E) is near the Ligurian border. D. Barberis, G.

Kuntze (Menyanthaceae) + (NAT) CAL: Fagnano Castello (Cosenza), lago della Paglia (WGS84: 39.560946°N, 16.018152°E), presso la sponda settentrionale del bacino, 1.061 m s.l.m., 14 giugno 2025, C. Terranova, M. Gallo Splendore (FI). – Naturalized regional alien species new for the flora of Calabria. Nymphoides peltata is distributed in central-northern Italy and Sardegna (Bartolucci et al. 2024). This species was first detected in Calabria four years ago with a single individual occupying an area with a diameter of approximately 1 m2. To date, the species is expanding and the area it occupies exceeds 50 square metres. The geographic remoteness of other Italian populations could exclude the spread through hydrochory and ectozoochory (Cook 1990) and intentional introduction by humans is plausible. C. Terranova, M.
