Effective ecological factors on distribution of the Leucanthemum vulgare Lam, known as rangelands’ invader species was studied in Fandoghlou rangelands of the Namin in Ardabil province. Samples were collected from six sites with and without the L. vulgare species. The site specification differences was tested by independent T-test. To determine the importance of the effective variables on distribution of the species, Linear Discriminant Analysis was used. The results showed that the effect of slope aspect, electrical conductivity, magnesium, soluble sodium, phosphorus, lime, volumetric moisture content (p<0.01) are meaningful. Potassium and organic matter (p<0.05) also were found effective on presence/ absence of L. vulgare. In general, 15 factors (slope, aspect, rainfall, temperature, acidity, electrical conductivity, calcium, potassium, soluble potassium, soluble sodium, phosphorus, lime, organic matter, silt percentage and volumetric moisture content) were identified as the most important factors on distribution of the L.vulgare.
