Abstract An updated checklist of the Calabrian alien vascular flora is presented. The alien flora of the Calabria region (Southern Italy) representing almost 12% of the regional flora and comprises 381 alien taxa, among which there are 370 angiosperms, 9 gymnosperms and 2 ferns. In relation to the state of spread, 35 invasive alien species (IAS) have been identified (4 of these are included in the list of Union Concern, sensu Regulation (EU) no. 1143/2014) which represent 9% of the Calabrian alien flora.In the last years the alien flora in Calabria has increased: in particular, alien species have increased over a decade from 190 to the current 381 taxa. If on the one hand this is due to new introductions, resulting from the globalization that relentlessly affects the whole planet, on the other hand it is to be linked to awareness of the problem of alien species and the increasing intensity of research in recent decades. This study would provide a baseline for further advanced studies on the management of invasive species and on the invasion ecology.

Invasive species, those that are nonnative and cause economic damage, are one of the main threats to ecosystems around the world. Ambrosia beetles are some of the most common invasive insects. Currently, severe economic impacts have been increasingly reported for all the invasive shot hole borers in South Africa, California, Israel, and throughout Asia. This 7-page fact sheet written by Demian F. Gomez, Jiri Hulcr, and Daniel Carrillo and published by the School of Forest Resources and Conservation describes shot hole borers and their biology and hosts and lists some strategies for prevention and control of these pests. http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/fr422
