Noxious Weeds of Australia

By W.T. Parsons & E.G. Cuthbertson (CSIRO)

Weed status and legislation

For each of over 200 species there is information on where it is proclaimed and what the legal requirements are for the weed's control. Maps show where each weed species occurs in Australia. Colour photographs and line drawings, supplemented by detailed descriptions of each plant, make identification straightforward, and simple keys are presented that enable positive separation of closely related species.

Noxious Weeds of Australia remains the only completely comprehensive reference on proclaimed weeds throughout Australia. The environmental and legal consequences of failing to control these weeds makes this an essential text for landholders, landcare and community groups, environmental consultants, botanists and every municipal, city, shire and country council authority.
