Title: Invasive Plants of Asian Origin Established in the United States and Their Natural Enemies, Vol 2
Description: Invasive Plants Established in the United States that are Found in Asia and Their Associated Natural Enemies Volume 2 is the second publication in this series containing summaries of information on plants found in Asia that were introduced purposefully or accidentally into the United States. Most of the plants in Volume 2 originated in Asia
although there is some confusion for several of the plants which probably originated in Europe; Gypsophila paniculata, Phleum pratense, Populus alba, Rhamnus cathartica, and Viburnum opulus. Invasive Plants of Asian Origin Established in the United States
and Their Natural Enemies Volume 1 contained 45 species whereas Volume 2 contains 41 species of plants. All of the information in both volumes was obtained by searching and reviewing the Chinese literature as well as discussions with Chinese scientists. Prior to these volumes, information was scattered, inaccessible and available only in Chinese.
