Mikania scandens was reported as occurring in Ontario, Canada (M. L. Fernald 1950; J. A. Steyermark 1963); it has been deleted from the flora of Canada (H. J. Scoggan 1978–1979, part 4). The Canadian reports were seemingly based upon misdeterminations and/or "too loose an application of that name with respect to present political boundaries." Records of M. scandens from along the Ohio River, Hamilton County, Ohio, are apparently based on non-persistent introductions; the species is apparently extirpated from Indiana, Maine, and Michigan.
Die Kletter-Mikanie (Mikania scandens) ist eine Pflanzenart aus der Gattung der Mikania.
Die Kletter-Mikanie ist eine ausdauernde, krautige, windende Kletterpflanze, die Wuchshöhen von 2 bis 5 Meter erreicht. Möglicherweise bildet sie oberirdische Ausläufer aus. Die Blätter sind gegenständig, herzförmig, gestielt und entfernt geschweift-gezähnt bis ganzrandig. Die Blütenstände sind schirmrispig in den Blattachseln. Die Blütenköpfe sind klein und vierblütig. Die Hüllblätter sind 4 bis 5,5 Millimeter groß. Die Blüten sind weiß oder rosa.
Die Blütezeit reicht von (Juli) August bis Oktober.
Die Chromosomenzahl beträgt 2n = 34+0-1B oder 38.[1]
Die Kletter-Mikanie kommt im subtropischen bis gemäßigten Ost-Amerika von Mexiko und den Bahamas über Texas und Illinois bis New York vor. Die Art wächst in feuchten Gebüschen der Küstenebene sowie an Quellen, Bächen und Seen.
Die Kletter-Mikanie wird selten als Zierpflanze für Rankgitter genutzt. Sie ist seit spätestens 1825 in Kultur.

Mikania scandens is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. Its common names include climbing hempvine, climbing hempweed, and louse-plaster.[1] It is native to the eastern and central United States, with its distribution extending into Tamaulipas, Mexico.[1] Reports of its presence in Ontario, Canada are erroneous.[2] It is an introduced and invasive species on many Pacific Islands[3] and in parts of southern Asia.[4]
This species is a perennial herb which grows as a branching vine. The leaves are oppositely arranged at swollen nodes on the stem. They have triangular or heart-shaped, sometimes toothed blades up to 15 centimeters long by 11 wide. The flower heads are clustered in panicles. The flower head is about half a centimeter long and is enclosed in narrow, sometimes purple-tinged phyllaries. The flowers are pinkish, purplish, or white. The fruit is a dark-colored, resinous achene about half a centimeter long, including its pappus of white or purplish bristles.[2][3]
The pappus-tipped seeds are dispersed on the wind or on clothing or fur. The plant also reproduces vegetatively by rooting from the nodes on sections of stem.[3] The climbing herbage can become weedy and dense, sometimes covering other vegetation.[5] It also has allelopathic effects on other plants.[4]
Its native habitat includes wooded areas and swamps.[3]
This is a host plant for the larvae of the Little Metalmark (Calephelis virginiensis), and the adult consumes the nectar.[6]
This plant is cultivated as a cover crop and a livestock fodder. It is also grown as an ornamental plant[3] and it is used in butterfly gardens.[6]
It is used in traditional medicine systems of the Indian subcontinent as a treatment for gastric ulcers, wounds, and insect bites and stings.[7]

Mikania scandens est une espèce de liane de la famille des Asteraceae. Elle est originaire des États-Unis, du Mexique et des Bahamas.
Cette espèce a tendance à être une plante envahissante. On la retrouve ponctuellement en Océanie. Elle ne doit néanmoins pas être confondue avec une autre espèce invasive : Mikania micrantha.
