• The biological control of aquatic weeds in South Africa: Current status and future challenges (2017, background): “For example, since 2008, the number of locality records for E. densa, S. platyphylla and I. pseudacorus has increased (from 0 to 14, 16 and 14 sites, respectively) to the point that these species are no longer considered eradication targets (Wilson et al. 2013).”
• Changes in the composition and distribution of alien plants in South Africa: An update from the Southern African Plant Invaders Atlas (2017, methodology): “While this serves to again highlight the fact that many taxa in SAPIA are likely to be under-sampled, it is, however, also likely that many SANBI ISP targets are indeed spreading.”
• Hitting the right target: taxonomic challenges for, and of, plant invasions (2013, background): “In the case of South Africa, taxonomists have been appointed and provided with resources to facilitate this process specifically to detect new invaders before they become widespread (Wilson et al. 2013).”
