This database presents lists of exotic plant taxa on conservation lands in a 19 county area defined as the South Florida Ecosystem by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The South Florida Ecosystem is a larger area than that covered by the Floristic Inventory of Southern Florida. This Web site provides technology, methods, and information to decision-makers, resource managers, and the general public to aid in the fight against harmful alien species in Hawaii. Includes Taxonomic, biologic, geographic, and ecologic information on 3209 Illinois vascular plant taxa. Data for inclusion in these national databases are derived from specimen records in national collections, from sight records made by naturalists and professional botanists and from published reports.
Users can query the system by scientific or common name, or by geographic region.
Researchers may also submit their own data to the database. The State Reports section highlights specific pest issues for each state. The purpose of this project is to develop and distribute information on exotic plant species distributions, as well as to provide information on the status of exotic species distributions on the Colorado Plateau, and the greater southwest. The World Weeds Database displays information on more than 2400 weed species around the world, including non-native species, ranked according to the severity of infestation. Users can view data by country, plant, genus, or family.
