Abstract:
Dog-strangling vine (Vincetoxicum rossicum), also known as pale-swallow-wort, was introduced to North America in the late 1800s. Since its introduction it has spread through the great lakes basin in southern Ontario and the north eastern United States. If the invasion of dog-strangling vine is to be controlled an organized long term management plan involving conservation organizations throughout Ontario is needed.
