New data on the distribution of alien species in the south of Primorsky krai are presented. For the first time, Digitalis grandiflora Mill. is indicated in the composition of an alien flora—a species that has escaped from culture, currently occupying a significant area in the arboretum of the Gornotaezhnaya station of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Ussuriysk city district, Primorsky krai). This species is a new alien to the entire territory of the Far East. In an anthropogenically transformed territory, Digitalis grandiflora is an epecophyte according to the degree of naturalization. It was revealed that Pilosella floribunda (Wimm. et Grab.) Fr. is actively being introduced to the exposition areas of the arboretum of the Gornotaezhnaya station, forming extensive loci with a projective coverage of up to 70%. It has been established that a new alien species for the flora of the Ussurisky Reserve is Carduus acanthoides L., found at a considerable distance from previously found places of growth outside the protected area. The information on new habitats of other species of alien plants in the territory of Primorsky krai identified by us in the period from 2019 to 2023 is presented.
