Amaranthus tuberculatus (as A. tamariscinus) has been detected by Costea (1996) between 1993 to 1995 at Constanţa harbour, which is an important entrance point of alien species in Romania. Seeds were probably “introduced with soya-bean waste and cereals”. Later, Memedemin et al. (2016) described the species (as A. rudis) again at the Constanţa harbour within the observation period that lasted from 2004 to 2014.
