South Africa has the greatest number of naturalized plant species of any African country (1139), and another seven countries have more than 300 naturalized species. The number of naturalized plant species is strongly positively correlated with native plant species richness. Equatorial regions harbour fewer naturalized species than temperate regions, and regions with Mediterranean-type climate have more naturalized species than tropical and subtropical regions.
