Comments: Carijoa riisei was considered a Western Atlantic species but is now considered to be from the "Indo-West<br />

Pacific" and to have invaded the Caribbean in the 19th century. In Hawaii, Carlton and Eldredge (2009) classify it as a<br />

NIS while Concepcion et al. (2010) consider that it could be native or nonindigenous, thus we list it as a conflict.<br />
