Title: Plant Invaders of Mid-Atlantic Natural Areas
Publisher: USDI National Park Service
Resource Type: Fact sheet
Description: This fifth edition provides updates on taxonomy, biological control and other information. The fourth edition was greatly expanded and reorganized to provide more information in a more efficient manner. Twenty species were added (80 species up from 60 previously) and a new section called “Plants to Watch” was added. This includes a number of species that may not be widespread but are increasingly catching the attention of ecologists, land managers and others as being invasive in natural habitats. Control guidance was expanded and placed at the end of each section and native plant alternatives were consolidated and placed in a separate section.
