TL;DR: An updated inventory of the vascular flora alien to Italy, providing details on the occurrence at regional level, is presented in this paper, which includes 1597 species, subspecies, and hybrids, distributed in 725 genera and 152 families; 2 taxa are lycophytes, 11 ferns and fern allies, 33 gymnosperms and 1551 angiosperms.

TL;DR: This work tests whether the genetic and species levels of biodiversity co-vary, using a large-scale and multi-species approach and demonstrates that species richness and genetic diversity are not correlated.

TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive extinction assessment for endemic vascular plants under the full responsibility of a single country is presented, which would provide an important step towards the prioritization and conservation of threatened endemic flora at Italian, European, and Mediterranean level.

TL;DR: A large survey led by a task force of 49 contributors with expertise in vegetation across all the Italian administrative regions summed up the knowledge on impact mechanisms of invasive alien plants in Italy and their outcomes on plant communities and the EU habitats of Community Interest.
