In the article "Mortality of a captive axis deer (Axis axis) and a llama (Lama glama) due to ingestion of Wedelia glauca" by F. Giannitti et al., it is mentioned that Wedelia glauca, a plant native to South America, was widely distributed in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, and Brazil and had been introduced in Spain. The authors have learned that the species was also introduced in the southeastern United States (Louisiana and Florida), where it has been described with the former name Pascalia glauca, according to the following reference: http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=PAGL9. The authors are unaware of its persistence in the flora of the United States.
