Water hyacinth( Eichhornia crassipes) is known as the terror of bengal because it is an exotic shrub which strongly competes with the native species and has also eliminated many of them. It has beautiful flowers but it has clogged wetlands, rivers, flood plains and lakes resulting in death of many aquatic species of India. It increases biochemical oxygen demand of the water body. This plant was introduced by European. It is an excellent example of loss of biodiversity due to alien species invasion.
