	Phalaris arundinacea
	Family Name:	Poaceae
	Class:	C
	Other Names:	canary grass
	Why is it a noxious weed?	It is a major threat to natural wetlands. It out competes most native species as it forms large, single-species stands, outcompeting other species. Dense stands have little wildlife habitat value. Its invasion can cause siltation in irrigation ditches.
