Leonurus quinquelobatus
Leonurus cardiaca
Diagnosis
The species differs from
Leonurus cardiaca
L. s. str. by its calyces and stems with abundant long hairs throughout (vs. glabrous or sparsely pubescent along ribs) and lower cauline leaves deeply divided into narrow lobes (vs. dissected into broad lobes) (
Gladkova and Menitsky 1978
).
Distribution
Native distribution
Crimea, Caucasus, Iran.
Secondary distribution
Europe, Asia.
Distribution in neighbouring territories
Locally established neophyte in southern Finland (
Kurtto 1998a
) and southern Karelia (
Kravchenko 2007
).
New record
Russia. Murmansk Region. Terskii District. Kuzreka Village, near Botaminskaya fishing station,
66.598067°N
,
34.834799°E
, on a seashore meadow in a holiday village, 05.07.2018,

M-4036 (H, MW 1058418, KAND 10122).
Pathways of introduction
Escape from confinement: Ornamental purpose other than horticulture.
The species has been traditionally cultivated as folk medicine, although nowadays it practically fell into disuse and can seldom be found in cultivation.
Period of introduction
Russia (after 1991).
The record originated from a well-explored area, from which the species has not been known in the previous times. Its introduction is therefore considered recent.
Invasion status
Locally established neophyte, persisting but not spreading far from the original place of introduction.
Ecology
Mountain forests and shrublands.
Biology
Perennial polycarpic. Hemicryptophyte with short rhizome.
Notes
Kozhin (2014)
reported the first occurrence of
Leonurus quinquelobatus
in Murmansk Region, which was based on a specimen collected from Umba Village. That plant was a misnamed specimen of
L. cardiaca
L. s.str.
