Abstract

We present a summary of the biology of four closely related taxa of Oxalis (including two subspecies), all in the section Corniculatae (the yellow-flowered Oxalis species). Two of the taxa are common weeds of cultivated fields and other ruderal sites including grassland and woodland edges. These are Oxalis stricta L. and O. dillenii Jacq. ssp. dillenii. The other two taxa are problem weeds in greenhouses, and sometimes escape locally to establish outdoor populations in Canada (Oxalis corniculata L. and O. dillenii ssp. filipes).Key words: Weed biology, wood-sorrels, oxalides, Oxalis spp., distribution
