Title: Distribution of Conringia austriaca (Brassicaceae) in Hungary and its phytogeographical significance in Central Europe
Year: 2011
Volume: 103
Pages: 5-22.

Abstract: All relevant literature and Hungarian herbarium records of Conringia austriaca have been gathered and revised in order to clarify the species’ distribution in Hungary and adjacent territories. Erroneous records are elucidated and corrected. The frequency of alien occurrences of this species is generally exaggerated, and all such European records need confirmation. The phytogeographical significance of C. austriaca is emphasized, and proposed that in Central Europe this species should probably be considered a relic of an interglacial or interstadial stage of the Pleistocene. With one figure.
