A new species of Veronica (Plantaginaceae) in the extreme north of Europe: a northward migration due to recent climatic changes?

Year 2019, Volume: 7 Issue: 3, 269 - 276, 29.10.2019

Abstract

Twelve species
of Veronica (Plantaginaceae) are mentioned
for Murmansk Region (Russia).
We report the first localities (N 67°35′42″ E 33°24′50″, 67°1658 32°2756″) of Veronica beccabunga for the region. The species distribution range
in Europe extends to nearly 65 °N.  The first find of V. beccabunga in Lapponia
Imandrae
in Russia
is briefly described, and ecological data about its habitat are given. A
spreading route of this species from its northern range in Europe
to the outpost locality is given. It is proposed to include this species in the next regional
Red Data Book in the group “In n
eed of monitoring”.

Thanks

We are grateful to F. Y Ellmouni (Fayoum University) and D. C. Albach (Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg) for confirmation of the species identification. Many thanks go to N. Kirillova to the help in field work and for the partial preparation of the herbarium specimen and to the Swedish Museum of Natural History and A. Anderberg for permission to use Hulten’s map (1986). We are obliged to G. H. Harper (Hereford, UK) for checking the quality of our English.
