Crithmum maritimum L. (Apiaceae) voor het eerst in België gevonden

In 1985 Crithmum maritimum has been recorded for the first time in Belgium. The single plant is still present It is growing on the seaward side of the strongly disturbed dunefront bordering the parking zone of a road on the sea promenade at Raversijde (51°l2'N, 2°50'3O"E; IFBL/C 1.23) near Ostend. Like other continental northern records of the species (France, dep. Du Nord and Netherlands, especially Zeeland) the Belgian locality will probably be of a temporary nature.
