| Abstract | ||||
| Gypsophila pilosa Hudson is recorded for the first time as a weed in recently reclaimed farmland east of Assiut town (Egypt). It was previously known from Libya, Palestine, Turkey and Iran. The occurrence of this species in the Nile land of Egypt fills the gap of its distribution between Palestine (Southwest Asia) and Libya (North Africa) and represents the southernmost limits of its global distribution. | ||||
