Résumé : |
I report on the introduction, spread and current distribution of the Greek Fir (Abies cephalonica) (Pinaceae) in Austria. The species was introduced in Austria in the second half of the 19th century as an ornamental tree. Very locally, it has already been planted in forests for the first time likely in the late 19th century, while some more trial forestry plantations have only been established in the 1970s. Currently, 14 escaped occurrences of A. cephalonica are known, occurring in parks, gardens and forests. All escaped populations are found on the eastern rim of the Northern Calcareous Alps south of Vienna. Some of these escaped populations are large (up to at least 1000 young trees) and spreading. Inferring from the size of escaped plants and from the literature, spread at some sites must already have started in the mid-1970s at latest. Based on the data presented here, I conclude that A. cephalonica should be considered as locally established in Austria. |
