The paper compares the relation between the dominance of Lupinus polyphyllus and species diversity in two invaded ranges (Czech Republic, New Zealand) and a native range of Lupinus polyphyllus (Pacific Northwest, USA). The species native to New Zealand revealed strong negative relation to the dominance of invasive Lupinus polyphyllus, while such negative relation was only marginally significant in case of species native to central Europe. Species in the native range of Lupinus polyphyllus (NW USA) revealed no relation to the dominance of Lupinus polyphyllus. Species native to New Zealand are weak competitors due to L. polyphyllus being a distinctive dominant within the invaded communities. On the contrary, european species are competent competitors to the invasive L. polyphyllus because of being well adapted to compete with native dominants and species in the native range of Lupinus polyphyllus coexist with it well due its long-term presence and evolution of communities.
