The Lamiales [1]

Family Oleaceae

[edit | edit source]
The Oleaceae (olive family) in New York consists of a handful of native and introduced ash trees, along with a number of non-native shrubs, some of which, primarily the privets, are extremely invasive and create dense thickets. Interestingly, the olive family does not include Elaeagnus species (Russian olive and autumn olive), which are also common alien invasives but are categorized in the Elaeagnaceae (oleaster family) in the Rhamnales.[1][2]

Tribe Forsythieae

[edit | edit source]
The tribe Forsythieae Taylor ex L. Johnson (1957) contains introduced Forsythia Vahl species, as well as the South Korean Abeliophyllum distichum Nakai.[1]

Forsythia

[edit | edit source]
Forsythia suspensa
Forsythia is a popular non-native ornamental shrub, planted at least in part for its bright yellow early spring flowers. In New York, the degree of this popularity is tempered in much of the state where local weather doesn't consistently allow much flowering. The two species listed as having to some extent naturalized in New York are F. viridissima (greenstem forsythia) and F. suspensa (weeping forsythia). It's likely that in recent times the hybrid of the two, Forsythia × intermedia, has been planted at least as much as either of its parents, but it is sterile and also may not reproduce vegetatively as well as F. suspensa, whose arching branches root where they touch the ground, allowing it to do a slow walk into adjacent natural areas.[1]
Forsythia species Common name Stem Center Stem Habit Leaf type

Abeliophyllum

[edit | edit source]
Abeliophyllum distichum
Abeliophyllum is a monotypic genus with Abeliophyllum distichum (미선나무, white forsythia) as its only species. It is native to South Korea, where it is listed as endangered.[1]

A specimen of this plant was collected at the New York Botanical Garden in 1943.[2]

New York State iNaturalist observations of white forsythia were made in 2022 and 2023, the first of which has not been tagged as cultivated.[3]

Tribe Oleeae

[edit | edit source]
The tribe Oleeae is the largest Oleaceae tribe and was previously treated as subfamily Oleoideae. It contains the four subtribes:[1]
  • Ligustrinae
    • Syringa (lilacs)
    • Ligustrum (privets)
  • Schreberinae
    • Schrebera (East Africa & India, not found in NY)
    • Comoranthus (Madagascar, not found in NY)
  • Fraxininae
    • Fraxinus (ash trees)
  • Oleinae (the remaining 12 genera, of which only Chionanthus is found in NY).

Subtribe Fraxininae

[edit | edit source]
Fraxinus
[edit | edit source]
Fraxinus americana
The genus Fraxinus is represented in New York primarily by the three native and economically important ash trees: white ash, black ash, and green ash. All are susceptible to infestation by the emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) which has already infested a number of areas in the state and is expected to decimate ash tree populations in the near future.

Subtribe Ligustrinae

[edit | edit source]

The subtribe Ligustrinae contains the non-native lilacs and privets.

Syringa
[edit | edit source]
Syringa vulgaris
The common lilac (Syringa vulgaris) has been grown in the state as an ornamental shrub for centuries and appears to persist only where it has been cultivated, and so it is found to have naturalized mainly around abandoned farmsteads and such.

The more recently introduced Japanese tree lilac (Syringa reticulata) however is considered to be potentially invasive, and although it is not yet widespread outside of cultivation in New York, it may be of concern.

GBIF shows hundreds of human observations of Syringa reticulata from the 2015 New York City Street Tree Census, giving the appearance on the map that the New York metro area has the highest density of Japanese tree lilacs in the world.[1]

The 2010 Syringa reticulata New York Invasiveness Ranking Form showed its invasiveness as unranked.[2]

Ligustrum
[edit | edit source]
Ligustrum vulgare
European privet
In general, the several privet species, none of which are native to the western hemisphere, have been found to be invasive, and some are quite difficult to control where they have naturalized. The New York Flora Atlas reports that Ligustrum obtusifolium (border privet) is by far the most common and invasive of the naturalized privets, but that Ligustrum vulgare (European privet) can be locally quite aggressive as well.

Although some sources continue to treat Amur privet as a separate subspecies (Ligustrum obtusifolium ssp. suave),[1] others treat it as a synonym of border privet (Ligustrum obtusifolium ssp. obtusifolium).[2]

Chionanthus virginicus
White fringetree (Chionanthus virginicus) is a usually-dioecious tree that is native to the southeastern US, possiibly as far north as southern Pennsylvania and New Jersey, but it has been reported to have naturalized in a few New York counties. It is becoming popular as a small ornamental tree in residential landscapes. There is some evidence that white fringetree in an acceptable host for the emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis).[1]

Family Tetrachondraceae

[edit | edit source]
The Tetrachondraceae is a very small family containing only two species of the genus Tetrachondra and a single species of the genus Polypremum. Of these three species, only Polypremum procumbens, juniper leaf, has been reported to have been collected in New York, but it has since been excluded from the New York Flora Atlas.[1][2]

  2. Tetrachondraceae USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) PLANTS Database (2013).

Polypremum

[edit | edit source]
Polypremum procumbens
Juniper leaf (Polypremum procumbens L.) is listed as native from Central and Southeastern U.S.A. to Central America, Caribbean, Northeast Colombia to Northern South America.[1]

In the United States, it appears to be found from southern New Jersey and Pennsylvania to Florida and Texas. It is not known to have naturalized in New York State. Although previously listed in the New York Flora Atlas, it has since been excluded.

Penstemon

[edit | edit source]
Penstemon or beardtongue is a large genus of about 250 species of primarily North American herbaceous perennials. The genus name was derived from the Greek penta (five) and stemon (stamen), referring to the flowers, which have five stamens (one sterile and four fertile).

Some Penstemon species have been hybridized and selected for horticultural trade. A popular example is Penstemon 'Dark Towers' (2004), which is a cross between an eastern U.S. cultivar: Penstemon digitalis Nutt. 'Husker Red' (Lindgren, 1984) and south-central U.S. hybrid pollen parent: Penstemon 'Prairie Splendor' (Penstemon cobaea Nutt. × Penstemon triflorus A.Heller) (Lindgren, 1993).[1]

Veronica subg. Pentasepalae
[edit | edit source]
Veronica teucrium
Veronica subg. Pentasepalae (Benth.) M. M. Mart. Ort., Albach & M. A. Fisch. is the largest subgenus of Veronica in the Northern Hemisphere, with approximately 70 to 80 species, mainly from Southwest Asia,[1] where his subgenus comprises the majority of perennial Veronica species.[2]

Most sources (FNA, POWO, FSUS, COL, VASCAN, etc. as of Jan. 2025) treat Veronica teucrium as the accepted species name for this plant, though a few, including the New York Flora Atlas treat it as Veronica austriaca ssp. teucrium.

There are a few "research-grade" iNaturalist observations of Veronica umbrosa M.Bieb. made in New York State. POWO and it's followers list Veronica umbrosa as a synonym of Veronica peduncularis, but POWO states that Veronica umbrosa was accepted following an "alternative taxonomy" by Albach, D.C. (2018).

Buddleja davidii
One species of Butterfly bush, Buddleja davidii has escaped cultivation and become invasive in New York State. It has been widely planted to attract butterflies and birds, but it has been found to be invasive in many temperate locations outside of its native range in China. Butterfly-bush should not be confused with butterfly-weed (Asclepias tuberosa), which is a native milkweed.
