Abstract

During field investigations in Morocco, two new alien species, Amaranthus spinosus (Amaranthaceae) and Cardamine occulta (Brassicaceae), were discovered as new to the country. Additionally, C. occulta seems to be the first record for continental Africa. The distribution and ecology of these species are discussed.
