| dc.description | Invasive alien plants constitute a little recognized but very substantial threat to forests in the Asia-Pacific region. Their negative impacts can be widespread. The first step in managing invasive alien plants is to recognize them - both those that have stealthily entered our ecosystems and those that have the potential to do so. This book provides the first-ever collation of invasive alien plants threatening the forests of Asia-Pacific. It identifies the native region, current distributions, h abitats, threats and damage associated with 111 species of invasive alien plants. Information on uses and methods of management are also provided. Each plant is illustrated with multiple colour photos and a map of its current geographic distribution. This publication can assist countries to investigate current and prospective pathways of invasions and plan ahead. | |
