Native to Brazil, Salvinia molesta is a free-floating aquatic fern and the only salvinia species to become established in Queensland. It is also found in New South Wales and the Northern Territory. Salvinia forms thick mats that can quickly cover water bodies. Infestations reduce water flow, degrade water quality, and affect native animals, stock, and recreational users. All other Salvinia species are prohibited invasive plants and sightings of these must be reported to Biosecurity Queensland within 24 hours. |
