With the exception of the Philippines, America’s strategic interest in and engagement with Southeast Asia begins with World War II. Prior to that “Monsoon Asia” was remote and exotic—a place of fabled kingdoms, jungle headhunters, and tropical seas. By the end of the nineteenth century European powers had established colonial rule over the entire region except Thailand. Then, as the twentieth century dawned, the Spanish colonial holdings in the Philippines suddenly and unexpectedly became available to the United States as an outcome of the Spanish-American War and Admiral Dewey’s destruction of the decrepit Spanish fleet in Manila Bay. This chapter examines the strategic pivot in Southeast Asia and the role China plays in affecting the U.S. position in this region.

The geographic scope of species introductions has increased dramatically in the last 200 years. One of the greatest challenges to understanding the ecological consequences of non-native species is that it has been difficult to identify the attributes that allow them to become established outside their native range. This challenge is compounded by anthropogenic habitat alteration that often enhances the establishment and expansion of non-native species. Fishes in the family Cichlidae are notoriously adaptive, and contribute more non-native species to North America than any other fish family. This is especially true in Florida (USA), where 18 cichlid species have become established. The Mayan cichlid (Cichlasoma urophthalmus) was first documented in south Florida in 1983, and is present in many freshwater and estuarine habitats. This study reports a northward range expansion by C. urophthalmus, demonstrates the connectivity between altered freshwater habitats and tidal estuarine habitats, and suggests that the estuarine populations are ephemeral and dependent upon colonisation from populations in altered freshwater habitats.

Lantana camara is increasingly grown in northern Italy as a potted plant and contributes to the diversification of offerings in the ornamental market. During the spring of 2001, selections of L. camara cuttings growing at a commercial farm located at Albenga (Riviera coast) exhibited tan leaf spots of irregular size and shape. Spots were at first isolated, 4 to 8 mm in diameter, and later coalesced and affected the entire plant. Heavily infected leaves, stems, and branches became blighted and were killed. Infected rooted cuttings also eventually died. Diseased cuttings showed a progressive reduction (to less than 20%) in rooting ability. Isolations from infected leaves and stems on potato dextrose agar (PDA), supplemented with 100 mg/liter of streptomycin sulphate, consistently yielded a fungus with mycelial and cultural characteristics resembling Rhizoctonia solani. The fungal isolates were further characterized as R. solani Kühn AG-4 based on hyphal anastomoses with several AG-4 tester isolates. Pathogenicity tests were performed by placing 5-day-old-fungal mycelial plugs, grown on PDA, at the base of five healthy yellow-sage stems and holding plants in a dew chamber at 18 to 22°C. After 2 days, foliage blight appeared on leaves of inoculated plants, and after 3 days, stems also became infected and entire plants wilted. Five noninoculated plants remained healthy. The fungal pathogen was reisolated from all inoculated plants. R. solani has been observed on L. camara in the United States (1) and the Philippines (2). To our knowledge, this is the first report of R. solani on L. camara in Europe. References: (1) D. F. Farr et al. Fungi on Plants and Plant Products in the United States.
