Description
The “DVW - priority species list of the Flemish Waterways Authority” is a species checklist published by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO). This checklist covers invasive alien plant species that are of interest for the Flemish Waterways Authority and contains species present or not yet present (alert species) within their operating region. Here it is published as a standardized Darwin Core Archive and includes for each species: the scientific name, kingdom and taxon rank. The dataset can be used for researching and managing alien plants or compiling regional and national registries of alien species.
