During field investigations from the spring 1998 to the end of 2014 in the south parts of Bosnia and Herze-govina, twelve new taxa for the flora of Bosnia and Her-zegovina were found: Aegilops uniaristata Vis., Erodium acaule (L.) Becherer et Thell., Erodium malacoides (L.) Ľ Hér., Fumaria gaillardotii Boiss., Helictotrichon convolu-tum (C.Presl) H...

The vicinity of Neum in South Bosnia and Herzegovina is the only Mediterranean part of the country with
about 24 km of coastline. Although the area has been floristically studied in the past, two grass species have
been recently registered as new to the flora of the country: Heteropogon contortus (L.) Roem. & Schult. and
Hyparrhenia hirta (L.) Stapf. Although both species are relatively common in the Mediterranean region of
Europe, here they are quite rare due to the lack of suitable habitats. New localities of H. contortus and H.
hirta in Bosnia and Herzegovina are reported.

Giant Foxtail Setaria faberi R.A.W. Herrm. is originally native to E Asia and was introduced to some parts of the European Continent. It has been recorded for the first time in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The flora of the town of Počitelj was studied in the period 2010 to 2015. The number
of plants growing spontaneously on and around the remains of the fortification walls
and on the pavements is 616. Alien taxa present exclusively in cultivation were not
analysed in this work. The following families are distinguished by the greatest number
of taxa: Asteraceae s. l. (75/12.18%), Poaceae (58/9.42%), Fabaceae (48/7.79%),
Lamiaceae (35/5.68%) and Brassicaceae (33/5.36%). The predominant life-forms are
therophytes and hemicryptophytes with 227 and 208 taxa respectively (36.85% and
33.77%). The floral elements spectrum shows a strong prevalence of Mediterranean
plants (31.33%), while Central European plants are almost absent (0.48%). A total of
32 taxa are found on the Bosnian and Herzegovinian National Red List, while 30 taxa
are classified as invasive.

This paper contains a preliminary list of alien grass species recorded in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Poaceae family in Bosnia and Herzegovina is represented by 32 alien species. Thirteen alien Poaceae species are naturalized (40.63%), of which four can be characterized as invasive species (12.50%) and 19 are casuals (59.37%). Most of the alien grass species originate in Asia 13 (40.63%), followed by those that originate in the Americas 9 (28.13%), Eurasia 5 (15.63%) and Africa 2 (6.26%). Three species have unknown origins. Many of these species are important crop plant and some are regarded as weeds.
Keywords: alien flora, grasses, crops, weeds, distribution, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
