Summary: | In the present paper, Lupinus bicolor Lindl., a plant native to SW North America, is cited for the first time to the Palearctic region. The populations of this species were found in Sierra de Gredos, where they grow mainly in temporarily flooded spring meadows in Quercus pyrenaica Willd. domain. After a morphological study of the specimens, we have not found any morphological differences between the Gredos and the American continent populations. The presence of L. bicolor in the Iberian Peninsula is probably the result of a human introduction, although more in-depth studies are necessary to completely rule out the natural origin of these populations.
En el presente artículo damos a conocer por primera vez la presencia en el Viejo Mundo de Lupinus bicolor Lindl., una planta nativa del SO de Norteamérica. Las poblaciones han sido halladas en la sierra de Gredos, donde crecen principalmente en prados primaverales temporalmente inundados del dominio de Quercus pyrenaica Willd. Tras un estudio morfológico, no hemos encontrado ninguna diferencia entre las poblaciones gredenses y las del continente americano. La presencia de L. bicolor en la península ibérica es probablemente el resultado de una introducción humana, si bien son necesarios estudios más profundos para descartar completamente el origen natural de estas poblaciones. |
