Solidago canadensis L. (Canadian goldenrod) is a widely distributed invasive herb from the Asteraceae family. It contains compounds that can change soil structure and its nutritional components thus affect indigenous species' growth, germination, survival. Consequently, it pose major ecological threat to biodiversity. On other hand, many studies show this species, due chemical properties, be used for positive purposes in pharmacy, agriculture, medicine, cosmetic industry, etc. S. diverse array of bioactive may responsible antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer activities. Many have discussed invasiveness canadensis, several genetic differences between plant native introduced environments been discovered. Previous environmental evaluations potential as an ecosystem services provider come out with four promising groups products: active extracts, essential oil, fuel, others. Although identified, there need detailed validation prioritisation services.

Red lionfish, Pterois volitans, a non-native marine species with potential to cause significant damage Caribbean coral reefs, reached Barbados in late 2011. In 2012, before lionfish became locally established, fish surveys at ten reef sites were undertaken every four months over year generate baseline data. Fisher catch also two main landing twice year. A decade later, all repeated the same sites. Post-invasion biomass was low across most and increased site depth, likely due fishing. comparison of selected key herbivores high ecological commercial importance (parrotfishes surgeonfishes) forage groups (damselfishes wrasses) pre- post-invasion indicated no detectable effects on wrasses, although damselfish did decline increases. We found evidence fisher rates, suggesting negative impacts earnings. Furthermore, composition remained virtually unchanged for trap fishers, while had become an important component spearfishers. Overall, our results suggest that control through sustained fishing effectively protects might indirectly benefit reefs release pressure native fishes by spearfishers now targeting lionfish.

Abstract Marine protected areas (MPAs) can protect and restore marine biodiversity fisheries, but there are concerns that they may also benefit invasive species. The spatial temporal colonization of lionfish ( Pterois miles ) in the eastern Mediterranean was compared across zones with varying fishing restrictions (no fishing, recreational commercial only), stations where targeted removal events were conducted by volunteer SCUBA divers. Lionfish density no nearly double only, over four times greater than both allowed. increased depth, possibly due to easier human exploitation shallow waters (0–10 m) accessible spearfishers. Targeted removals divers decreased densities 60%, while without had a 200%–400% increase. Along management actions, natural ecological processes might drive within MPAs, speed which colonized fishery‐restricted zones, emphasized need for more sophisticated MPA strategy considers species impacts dynamics an ecosystem‐based approach.

A deepwater (>40 m) fishery for invasive lionfish ( Pterois volitans/miles ) offers a potential means to control densities and mitigate their impacts on reefs too deep SCUBA removals. Trapping could provide scalable solution—if an effective fishing gear with minimal environmental be permitted adopted by fishers. We tested the efficacy of wooden slat lobster traps, wire sea bass experimental non-containment Gittings traps. One hundred deployments each trap type were made at 120 mesophotic (38–78 m deep) natural reef sites in northeastern Gulf Mexico (29.6–30.1°N, 86.1–87.6°W). Reef surveyed remotely operated vehicles (ROV) before after deployments, remote time-lapse video cameras affixed above 86 traps sample situ recruitment The data showed that attracted vicinity three types similar rates, but rarely entered or high bycatch rates suggested use is likely unsuitable targeting lionfish.
