 Infestation; From northern Africa, is a fire-stimulated grass which is infamous for carrying intense fires through formerly barren lava flows of Hawaii island. Concerted efforts at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park have successfully kept it contained there for over 15 years. Vigilance has also checked its spread on the islands of Maui, Lanai, Molokai and Kauai. John M. Randall, The Nature Conservancy, Bugwood.org Additional Resolutions & Image Usage |
