As one of the most dangerous 100 invasive alien species in the world,the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta Buren)originates in the Parana River of South America.Since it firstly discovered on the Chinese mainland in 2004,it has rapidly spread to many provinces of South China and poses a serious threat to agriculture and forestry production,public facilities,human health,animal safety and biodiversity in invasive areas.By summarizing the occurrence of the red imported fire ant in Hunan and Guangxi Provinces,this paper analyzed the epidemic situation in recent years,described the development of control work and major problems,and also put forward countermeasures and suggestions on how to set specific goals,strengthen emergency guidance,increase financial input,strengthen scientific and technological research,reinforce jointly control and enhance the propaganda etc.
