Abstract: The 95 alien invasive plants of 23 families were identified in Northeast China based on field investigation and reported data. Based on comprehensive analysis of the previous risk assessment methods of alien invasive species, a risk assessment model of alien invasive plants in Northeast China was established. We assess the alien invasive plants in Northeast China using this model, and 25, 53, and 17 species are identified as the species of the risk levels of A, B, and C, respeetively. Some control measures were presented for each risk level.

Key words: Northeast China, alien invasive plants, risk assessment
