More studies are recognising the importance of monitoring invasive species using multiple strategies, stakeholders, and surveillance @isro @moefcc @BioinvNet link.springer.com/article/10.100…
India’s invasive aliens problem complicates; can we wait to understand scope. Multi-pronged bottom-up, and inclusive approach is more effective and must be developed. @BioinvNet thehindu.com/sci-tech/energ…
"families living in the fringes of the tiger reserve, it (invasion) is a menace that has disrupted every aspect of daily life – from farming and foraging to safety and nutrition" @BehanBox @fesforcommons @wildelock @TrKanha @BioinvNet behanbox.com/2025/09/30/onc…
Studies are increasingly exploring community gains from managing invasive plants. Here's an interesting study on the revenue potential of managing invasive water hyacinth @moefcc @BioinvNet link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Holistic approaches to sustainable control of invasive water hyacinth: merging ecological insights...
Biological Invasions - The water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is an invasive species that rapidly multiplies and leads to the extinction of native species. These intrusions progressively destroy...
These “invasive” fishes outcompete native species, reproduce aggressively, and thrive in disturbed environments. In India, 12 invasive fishes are recognised as a major threat, but this list will likely grow without stronger policies and more scientific monitoring in place

Invasive alien fishes are introduced due to human activity outside their natural range, where they establish, spread and cause ecological or economic harm. What makes them “invasive” is not just their exotic origin but their ability to outcompete native species and thrive in…
Greater tropical regions like Oceania, Brazil, and India are emerging hotspots of plant invasions. Timely actions are needed to prevent alien species introduction and their spread

This survey by @ntca_india has produced the national report and database on invasive plants in India. Critical for conservation of natural areas and developing informed policies for managing invasive species in India @moefcc @BioinvNet
The #TamilNadu government has informed the #MadrasHighCourt that 517 villages spread across 32 districts have become free of #seemaikaruvelam (prosopis juliflora), an exotic and invasive plant species considered harmful to the ecology, reports @imranhindu. trib.al/ONhRUWo
A welcome update on the control measures implemented by @tnforestdept and others. These actions highlight how dedicated measures can help in controlling pervasive problems like invasive plants. Must be upscaled @BioinvNet @moefcc
The Tamil Nadu government has informed the Madras High Court that 517 villages spread across 32 districts have become free of seemai karuvelam (prosopis juliflora), an exotic and invasive plant species considered harmful to the ecology and the maintenance of groundwater table,…
Giant African snail has be invading different pockets of India for a while now. Such records can help monitor it's invasion trend and place effective control measures @tnforestdept @BioinvNet
The Giant African Snail, one of the world’s worst invasive species, has been found in St Thomas Mount, Tirusulam, and Perungalathur Hills, raising health concerns for Chennai. Researchers warn the snail, a carrier of parasites causing brain inflammation, could spread rapidly…
Top 10 Invasive Alien Species in India and their Havoc
Effective management strategies are emerging to remove invasive Senna spectabilis trees. They must be upscaled across the invaded areas across Western Ghats, Eastern Ghats, and other invaded regions

Propagation of invasive plants in India remains a legacy of the colonial era. Experience that should educate modern restoration efforts. Inclusive and science-based restoration efforts are vital #invasivespecies @moefcc @BioinvNet
About the invasive Prosopis Juliflora (Ballari Jali in Kannada). British introduced it. Locals said it was deliberate to destroy crops & ultimately takeover their lands. Local industrialist tried to eradicate it & generated employment. Yet it still thrives deccanherald.com/india/karnatak…
