Abstract

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