“…Studies on the current or potential distribution of specific non-native species in Mexico range from distribution patterns at the local scale, for example a university campus (Zavala-Hurtado, Portilla- Gutiérrez, Ayala-Fernández, & Bravo-Rivera, 2003), to the national scale, modeling the potential distribution of the introduced Asteraceae in Mexico and the actual and potential distribution of S. molle (Ramírez-Albores, Bustamante, & Badano, 2016;Villaseñor et al, 2012). The distribution of most non-native species has been recorded at the state scale Villaseñor & Espinosa-García, 1998), but few detailed actual and potential distributions of non-native species are know: buffel grass (C. ciliaris) in Sonora and the Baja California Peninsula (Arriaga, Castellanos, Moreno, & Alarcón, 2004); testing the effectiveness of various potential distribution models with Brassica tournefortii Gouan and Schismus arabicus Nees in the Sonoran Desert (Sánchez- Flores, 2007;Sánchez-Flores, Rodríguez-Gallegos, & Yool, 2008); Hypochaeris radicata L. actual distribution in Mexico city (Hinojosa-Espinosa & Cruz-Durán, 2008); Arundo donax L., tracing its multiple introductions and identifying the origin of the genotypes that invaded the Río Bravo Basin (Tarin et al, 2013); and Atriplex semibaccata R. Br., B. tournefortii, Bromus rubens L., Centaurea melitensis L., C. dactylon, S. tragus, Schismus barbatus, and Tamarix chinensis Lour (=T.…”
