    Abstract

    In recent years we have witnessed the naturalization of many alien species of Asteraceae in Taiwan. In this report we document the recent naturalization of the Neotropical Austroeupatorium inulifolium (Kunth) R. M. King & H. Rob. at 1,300-1,400 m altitudes in the Central Mountain Range of Taiwan. We provide a description, a line drawing, and photographs to aid in identification.
