Rank Reasons
Eutrochium fistulosum is a perennial herb found in a variety of wet habitats in eastern and central United States from southern Maine west to Michigan south to Florida and west to Texas. It faces threats from development, rights-of-way maintenance activities, invasive species, and recreational activities, but threats are not widely documented. With a large range extent and over 800 occurrences, this species is considered secure.
Range Extent Comments
Eutrochium fistulosum occurs in eastern and central United States from southern Maine west to Michigan south to Florida and west to Texas (FNA 2006). Range extent was estimated to be almost 2.7 million square kilometers using herbarium specimens, photo-based observations, and NatureServe Network occurrence data documented between 1993 and 2024 (iNaturalist 2024, NatureServe 2024, SEINet 2024).
Occurrences Comments
By applying a 1 km separation distance to herbarium specimens, photo-based observations, and NatureServe Network occurrence data documented between 1993 and 2024, it is estimated that there are over 800 occurrences rangewide (iNaturalist 2024, NatureServe 2024, SEINet 2024).
Threat Impact Comments
Although threats are not widely documented, Eutrochium fistulosum is threatened by development, powerline and roadside rights-of-way maintenance activities, roadside widening projects, invasive species (including Lythrum salicaria, Celastrus orbiculatus, and Phragmites australis), recreational activities, and other threats in some places, though there is insufficient data, including anecdotal accounts, to understand scope and severity of threats for this species.
Ecology & Habitat

Habitat

Eutrochium fistulosum grows in "wet lowlands, alluvial woods, along streams, moist meadows, bogs, marshes with permanently saturated or seasonally flooded organic soils, open sun or partial shade" (FNA 2006), including fields and ditches (Weakley and the Southeast Flora Team 2023).
