Abstract

This report deals with the problem of the invasive Australian tree Pittosporum undulatum in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. P. undulatum, which has the local names wild coffee and mock orange, was introduced to the Blue Mountains in 1883 and has now spread through about 1300 hectares of forest, most of it primary montane tropical rain forest. The report has five chapters.
