“…Alien plant species are frequently found in human‐impacted habitats of high fertility (Maskell et al ., ), notably in urban areas, where the human population density is particularly high (Williamson and Fitter, ; Pyšek, ; Roy et al ., ; Wittig, ; Maskell et al ., ), and along strong dispersal pathways such as river corridors, where they may be found in both aquatic and riparian habitats (e.g. Pyšek and Prach, ; Tickner et al ., ; Borisova, ).…”

“…It has invaded riparian habitats across Europe (e.g. Borisova, ), is identified as a noxious weed in several US states (USDA, ), and is one of six alien plant species found in aquatic and riparian environments that are sufficiently invasive to be prioritized for control and management by the UK Environment Agency (EA, ). In common with other invasive alien plants, the species possesses many competitive advantages over native species.…”

Management methods to control or eradicate invasive alien species should be guided by research into their efficacy in relation to the target species as well as their wider effects on the community. Impatiens glandulifera Royle (Balsaminaceae) is an invasive alien species, which has spread rapidly across Europe and North America, particularly colonizing riverbanks, wet woodlands, and wastelands. The effectiveness of two mechanical control measures and their impacts on community plant species richness and diversity within the riparian zone of the urban river Brent, London, England, was assessed. Over 2 years, an experiment was performed across three sites that exhibited contrasting levels of invasion of I. glandulifera: high, moderate and low. The experiment involved three treatments on replicated plots at all three sites: pruning at 6‐week intervals, weeding at 6‐week intervals, and a control. The effects of these control measures were most clearly seen at the site with the highest level of invasion and, to a smaller extent, at the moderately invaded site. Weeding was more successful in controlling the species than pruning, and the greatest impact of these treatments on community plant species richness and diversity was only apparent after 2 years of the experiment. Although seedlings of 10 other alien species were found, there was no evidence that their presence on the plots was detrimental to native species during the experimental period. Three common native species each approached 10% cover on the weeded plots at the heavily invaded site by the end of the experiment: Poa annua, Rumex obtusifolius, and Urtica dioica. These assessments provide guidance for implementing mechanical control of I. glandulifera in riparian zones. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…The Black Book of Flora in Bashkiria and the Black Book of Flora in the Far Eastern Federal District are in preparation for publication. The use of unified methodology has enabled scholars to compile lists of invasive species (blacklists) of the Upper Volga region [ 57 ], the Sura River basin [ 28 ], Middle Urals [ 90 ], Yaroslavl region [ 67 ], Khabarovsk Territory [ 131 , 133 ], Volgograd region [ 80 ], Bryansk region [ 53 ], Voronezh region [ 56 ], the Middle Volga region [ 87 ], Kabardino-Balkarian Republic [ 74 ], and the Far Eastern Federal District [ 105 ] ( Figure 1 ).…”

This paper represents a review of comprehensive research into invasion biology done by Russian scholars for four decades. Invasion biology is a relatively new field of research focused on the study of alien plants, their behavior in new habitats and risks they pose to indigenous species. It is shown that over 40 years, single finds of alien plant species have transformed into a check-list of invasive species in Russia. The most significant invasion pathways were identified, and the rate of microevolutional changes in plant species in their secondary distribution range was determined. Since the most active alien species disperse without regard to national borders, international cooperation is crucial in joint studies of invasive species.

About the reasons for the rare plant species disappearance in the Upper Volga region

The problems of the extinction of aquatic plant species in Ivanovo region glacial lakes are discussed. As a result of research a sharp decrease in the number of rare hydrophytes (Elatine hydropiper, Isoetes lacustris, I. echinospora, Sparganium gramineum) has been established. The reasons are complex, they are associated with the eutrophication of ponds, heavy metals soil pollution, uncontrolled recreational loads and Elodea canadensis invaded into lake ecosystems. The ecological niche of Sparganium gramineum in the lakes is occupied by S. × longifolium, the hybridogenic origin of which is proved by modern molecular genetic analysis.
