2005: In France, H. ranunculoides has been reported in pools in the Essonne valley south of Paris and in the Dombes area (near Lyon); invaded pools are completely covered by the end of the season, but there is currently no spread to other water bodies.
EPPO Reporting Service (2013/114) : Hydrocotyle ranunculoides (Apiaceae, EPPO A2 List) was previously reported in France in the Ain and in the Essonne departments. It has been found for the first time in the region Aquitaine on the Cousturet river in the municipality of Saubion, in the Landes Department. After its discovery in 2012, a manual removal of the plant was planned. Twelve interventions were organized, representing 36 working days, to remove in total 20.5 m3 of the plant.
The species has also been found in the Saubion municipality in the locality ‘Lagrollet’, as well as in the municipality of Tosse. Filters have also been placed to contain the species and to prevent its spread to the water catchment. The species has been observed on the Baudigau river, at the junction with the Marais d’Orx (protected wetland area of the Landes department). H. ranunculoides has also been recorded in the neighbouring deparment of Gironde.
