Saltcedar - Introduced as an ornamental from Asia,
invades riparian (streamside) areas throughout the American West.
It accumulates salt in its tissues, which is later released into
the soil, making it unsuitable for many native species.

Giant salvinia is a fast-growing fern that can clog
ponds and lakes. Forming mats up to 2 feet thick, the plant gobbles
up oxygen and blocks sunlight needed by other water dwellers.
A tiny weevil, Cyrtobagous salviniae, is under study as
a biocontrol for this obnoxious invader.
