View towards the east where first elements of the completely different flora of the Pannonian region occur.
Potentilla clusiana, an eastern alpine species that looks very similar to Potentilla nitida from the Dolomites.
Campanula alpina, also a species with an eastern alpine distribution.
Dianthus alpinus, another eastern alpine species.
How does the eastern distribution limit of #plants in the European #Alps look like? The #Schneeberg 🏔️ (2076 m) in #Austria near #Vienna is a great place to find out! The often isolated occurrences must have been better connected to the other populations in the past.

Pulsatilla vernalis, postfloral elongation
Pulsatilla vernalis
Pulsatilla vernalis
Ranunculus kuepferi
#Pulsatilla #vernalis, lady of the snows❄️, last weekend in the 🇨🇭Alps above treeline at c. 2250m🏔️. Early flowering in alpine spring with overwintering leaves next to Crocus albiflorus and #Ranunculus #kuepferi, and phenologically variable from early flowering to #postfloral #elongation.

Parietaria pensylvanica, Berlin Neukölln, May 2025
Distribution of Parietaria pensylvanica in Germany; https://floraweb.de/php/artenhome.php?name-use-id=4123
80 years after #WW2 I stumbled across #Parietaria #pensylvanica in #Berlin. Thought to be escaped from botanical garden after bombings (or brought by 🇺🇸🪖?) it’s now well established on this #urbanbiodiversity #island 🏝️ but hasn't spread much further! #bioinvasions floraweb.de/php/artenhom...

I am a quantitative ecologist and plant taxonomist.
My research interests span from investigating island and mountain biogeographical and biodiversity patterns to assessing the effects of climate and land-use change on plant species distribution
