Zusammenfassung:	Invasive species including plants, animals, microbes, and pathogens are causing significant challenges for restoration professionals across the Midwest (see Chapters 1–7). They are organisms that are not native to the ecosystem being restored, and their introduction can cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health (National Invasive Species Council 2001; National Invasive Species Council 2008). With over 50,000 individual invasive species documented in the United States, we are witnessing pronounced changes to the structure and function of native plant communities. These changes are raising new questions about how to most effectively prioritize invasive species control and focus
