AK 302091, Spermacoce assurgens; Spontaneous Occurrence. A new weed record for New Zealand that derives from the importation of coir peat contaminated with weed seeds from Sri Lanka. To date there are no records outside of the nursery industry, where the coir peat is used in potting mixes. James et al. (2012) provide more details on the occurrence of this and other weed species derived from the contaminated coir peat imported to New Zealand.
