There are 4139 naturalized plant taxa, which makes Europe the second richest continent after North America, and represents an increase by 390 taxa (or 9.6%) compared to the inventory conducted during the 2000s by the DAISIE (Delivering Alien Invasive Species Inventories for Europe) project. Most naturalized species are recorded in England (1379), Sweden (874), Scotland (861), Wales (835), France (716), the European part of Russia (649), Ukraine (626) and Norway (595), indicating that the northern part of the continent, in particular the British and Irish Isles and Scandinavia, is most heavily invaded. The main donor of naturalized plants to Europe is temperate Asia (1265 more species received than donated), in contrast, Australasia and North America harbour many more naturalized species of European origin than they have supplied to Europe, 1159 and 1080, respectively. The 1926 naturalized aliens from other continents represent a 14.9% contribution to the total plant diversity in Europe.
