Abstract
Field research conducted in the Peripanonian part of Bosnia and Herzegovina resulted in new and noteworthy records for the genus Lindernia. For the first time, alien L. dubia was recorded in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and new localities of threatened L. procumbens were also discovered. Individuals of both species grew in wetland vegetation of the class Isoëto-Nanojuncetea. The paper presents data on the morphology, ecology and distribution of species of the genus Lindernia. The alien status of L. dubia in Bosnia and Herzegovina is determined as the initial phase of naturalisation. The threatened status of L. procumbens in Bosnia and Herzegovina is assessed as endangered. These results contribute to a better knowledge of the flora and vegetation of ephemeral wetlands in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the Balkans, which are still not sufficiently explored.
