Abstract
Fleabanes ('Conyza' spp.) are an increasing problem in annual summer crops in Australia. In this paper we review the available literature on the ecology of 'Conyza' species in order to better understand the possible reasons for this recent increase. Aspects of germination, growth and development, seed dispersal, crop interaction and herbicide resistance are included. In addition we highlight research gaps in fleabane ecology for subsequent investigation of the species in Australia.
