Lantana strigocamara R.W. Sanders

LANTANA; SHRUBVERBENA

**

**

Widely planted and naturalized, L. strigocamara has apparently introgressed and hybridized with many entities including those of L. depressa in Florida (Sanders 2012). Lantana camara s.str. is considered native to the Neotropics and naturalized elsewhere, but not currently known in Florida (Sanders 2006, 2012). A review of low-level exposures to Lantana in California indicated mild toxicity (Carstairs et al. 2010). Ingestion of the plant has caused poisonings and fatalities in livestock (Fourie 1987; Sharma et al. 2007). The plant contains lantadenes (terpenoids). The extensive synonymy list below is for the concept of L. camara s.lat.
