• Florida ranks in the top 4 areas in US for
invasive species
• Tropical/subtropical climate
• Transportation hub (tourism & trade)
• 1043 plant species tracked in EDDmaps
• Significant impacts to recreation,
agriculture, ecosystem services
• Expensive to manage
• $45 million/yr on conservation acres (Hiatt, unpublished data)
$
What is The Assessment?
1. Predictive Tool to evaluate invasion risk before species enters the state
2. Status Assessment to evaluate species present in the state
3. Infraspecific Taxon Protocol to evaluate invasion risk of cultivars
Multiflora rose(multiflora rose)
Indigofera hirsuta(hairy indigo)
Nandina domestica CV.(harbor dwarf)
History & Purpose
• 1999 UF/IFAS Invasive Plant Working
Group
• Recommendations for use &
management faculty/staff
• Currently, fulfilling a research &
extension role
• Recognized nationally & internationally
1. Predictive Tool
• Weed risk assessment (WRA) modified for Florida
• Evaluates species
• New to state
• Causes problems elsewhere
• Proposed for new use
• >140 species evaluated
Vitex rotundifolia (Beach vitex)
High Risk
2. Status Assessment
• Evaluates species already in Florida
• Describe the status of the species
• Ecological impacts
• Potential for expanded distribution
• Management difficulty
• Economic value
• Incorporates field data from experts
2. Species Re-assessments

• Cultivars, varieties, or sub-species
• Determine if recommendations for resident species apply
• Request submitted to IFAS Assessment staff
• Evidence indicating the taxon is a distinct entity
• Evidence the taxon will behave differently than parent species
3. Infraspecific Taxon Protocol

Conclusions
1. Not considered a problem (or Low Risk) species at this time & may be recommended (reassess in 10 yrs)
2. Caution (or Evaluate Further) – may be recommended but manage to prevent escape (reassess in 2 yrs)
3. Invasive (or High Risk) (reassess in 10 yrs)

Status Assessment
Research example 1:
Predicted versus actual invasiveness of climbing vines in Florida (Gordon et al. 2017)
• 84 vines in Florida
• 15 non-invaders were predicted high risk (i.e., false positive)
• 4 invaders were predicted to be low risk (i.e., false negative)
• Residence time highly correlated to invasion status
Future research
• Research on fate of abandoned agricultural lands
• Invasion risk of alternative crops being promoted to citrus
• Relationship between residence time & the invasion status
• Assessment dataset provides information on >600 species
Stay tuned for new additions!!
• Currently completing backlog of WRAsAgave angustifolia (Century plant)
Morrenia odorata (Latexplant, strangler vine)
Jatropha gossypiifolia (Bellyache bush)
• Collecting data to complete 31 new assessmentsPraxelis clematidea (Praxelis?)
Cleome hassleriana (Spider flower)
Ludwigia peruviana (Peruvian water primrose)
Pyrus calleryana (Callery pear)
