This section of the website focuses on
invasive species, both plants ad animals that are encountered in
our field work or are severely affecting those areas we are
visiting. The Hemlock Search Project for example is
intimately linked with the invasive insect the Hemlock Wooly
Adelgid that is devastating native hemlocks across most of its
southern range. However this section is not meant as a
clearinghouse of information on invasive species. I would
recommend for further reference to first check out the following

any species, including its
seeds, eggs, spores, or other biological material capable of
propagating that species, that is not native to that
ecosystem; and whose introduction does or is likely to cause
economic or environmental harm or harm to human health.
