Riparian zones in the United Kingdom are diverse but prone to anthropogenic changes and invasive species like impatiens glandulifera. This study introduces a method to identify and map these flowers using a computer vision framework and UAV imagery, wrapped into an executable program called the semi‐automatic thresholding tool (SATT). Validation showed

Fallopia japonica (Japanese knotweed).
Abstract F. japonica is an extremely invasive weed despite its lack of extensive sexual reproduction in most of its introduced range. It is included on various lists of invasive weeds and is one of the 100 worst invasive species as identified by the IUCN.

Discovery and epitypification of the sexual stage of Cadophora fallopiae on Fallopia spp. in Japan.
Abstract The genus Cadophora was established as a dematiaceous asexual fungi characterized by solitary phialides with distinct collarettes, and phylogenetically suggested to be the asexual stage of the family Pyrenopezizaceae (Helotiales, Ascomycetes). However, the sexual stage is unknown except in a few species.
