DISTRIBUTION AND OCCURRENCE

SPECIES: Convolvulus arvensis | Field Bindweed
GENERAL DISTRIBUTION : Field bindweed is a native of southern Europe and naturalized throughout the United States and Canada [11]. In the United States, field bindweed's range extends from California [26]; throughout the Pacific Northwest [16], Intermountain region [8,9,14,41], and Great Plains [13,21]; south into Arizona [19] and Texas [4]; and in all states east of the Mississippi River [11,17,29,34,36,38]. It is adventitious is Hawaii [43]. Field bindweed occurs in the southern provinces of Canada from the East Coast across the plains to the West Coast [33].

Field bindweed is listed as a dominant forb in 12.4 percent of the sample sites in a riverine United States Fish and Wildlife Service deep water-wetland classification. The main factors listed as influencing field bindweed occurrence were livestock and wildlife grazing and recreation use [27]. In Wyoming it is a dominanat herbaceous plant in the blue spruce (Picea pugens)-lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta)-white fir (Abies concolor) subtype of the coniferous overstory habitat type. The publication that lists field bindweed as a dominant is: A physical and biological characterization of riparian habitat and its importance to wildlife in Wyoming [27].
