Weeds Gone Wild: Plants Conservation Alliance
Weeds Gone Wild: Alien Plant Invaders of Natural Areas is a web-based project of the Plant Conservation Alliance's Alien Plant Working Group, that provides information for the general public, land managers, researchers, and others on the serious threat and impacts of invasive alien (exotic, non-native) plants to the native flora, fauna, and natural ecosystems of the United States.

Invasive Alien Plant Species of Virginia
The entire list of invasive alien plant species of Virginia is available on-line as a .PDF file. This is an advisory list published by the Department of Conservation & Recreation (VDCR) to inform land managers of potential risks associated with certain plant species known to exhibit invasive behavior in some situations. This list details light and moisture requirements, habitat regions, and degree of invasiveness for Virginia's most troublesome invaders. The species are ranked as highly invasive, moderately invasive or occasionally invasive. It should be noted the list is not regulatory in nature, and thus does not prohibit the use of the listed plant species.

Invasive Species Guidebook - Wildlife Habitat Council
Originally devised as a tool for land managers at Department of Defense installations, the guidebook is applicable to management of any natural area. The book's first section focuses on identification and management of specific invasive plants that occur in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. Later chapters contain information about invasive species removal and habitat restoration techniques, including discussion of how to minimize impacts on native wildlife while controlling invasive species, how to prevent recurring invasions, how to restore native habitat, and how to use partnerships to achieve goals.
