The Invasive Plants Association of Wisconsin (IPAW) is a group working to address the problems presented by invasive species in Wisconsin. [1] In Wisconsin it is illegal to "possess, transport, transfer, or introduce certain invasive species in Wisconsin without a permit". [2] Species on IPAW's list of invasive plants: [3]
These are lists of invasive species by country or region. A species is regarded as invasive if it has been introduced by human action to a location, area, or region where it did not previously occur naturally (i.e., is not a native species), becomes capable of establishing a breeding population in the new location without further intervention by humans, and becomes a pest in the new location ...

The species is invasive in Florida and other warm states, where they eat Florida’s native plants and destabilize seawalls. A green iguana (Iguana iguana) is pictured at the Wildlife Rescue ...
Invasive Grasses. Invasive plant species can reduce grassland quality and displace native plants. These non-native grasses may not be able to withstand extreme weather such as wildfires and ...
There are many impacts involving invasive grasses in North America, which range from an ecosystem level to a community level to a genetic level. Such impacts influence habitat structure, disturbance regimes, and nutrient cycling. [2] A successful invasion of a grass may result in new hybrid species, which can have both good and bad results.
Quagga mussels are classified in Wisconsin as an aquatic invasive species. The species is native to Europe and is thought to have been transported to the Great Lakes region via international ...
The economic impacts of invasive species can be difficult to estimate especially when an invasive species does not affect economically important native species. This is partly because of the difficulty in determining the non-use value of native habitats damaged by invasive species and incomplete knowledge of the effects of all of the invasive species present in the U.S. Estimates for the ...
