ecology

Ecology. The species is found in disturbed areas between 0 - 2,200 m elevation in its native range, but around cities and cultivated fields from sea level to 700 m in North America.

materials_examined

Specimens examined. See Suppl. materials 1 and 3.

Type. 3 " Habitat in Orbis totius cultis " [sheet marked with Θ, meaning central part of Asia = Middle East], Without collector s. n. (lectotype, designated by Henderson 1974, pg. 19: LINN [LINN 248 - 18]).

ecology

Ecology. Weed of cultivated land, open spaces in forests and roadsides; found in disturbed areas between 0 - 2,200 (3,500) m elevation.

materials_examined

Selected specimens examined. A total of 1,537 specimens were examined from 82 countries during the study across Africa, Asia, Australia, Eurasia and the Pacific. Adventive specimens from the New World were also studied in order to understand the full range of morphology within the species. All specimens examined can be seen in Appendix 2 (csv format) and Appendix 3 (traditional Specimens Examined list in pdf format).

discussion

Note: Although Baylis (in Trans. Roy. Soc. New Zealand 85: 380. 1958) stated that the nomenclatural type had been examined, he did not indicate what it was. D'Arcy's choice of 248.18 (LINN) as type (in Ann. Missouri Bot. Gard. 61: 855. 24 Dec 1974) is pre-dated by that of Henderson using the same collection (in Contr. Queensland Herb. 16: 19. 2 Apr 1974).
