During the three-year field research (2019-2022) in the area of the Canton of Sarajevo, we discovered many invasive plant species in localities where they had not been recorded before. Among them, Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle, Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. and Reynoutria japonica Houtt. stand out in particular due to their abundance and coverage. This study aimed to provide data on the localities where these invasive plants were found, including altitude, longitude and latitude, soil type and their floristic and phytocoenological features. Data from these localities should contribute to the creation of a database that can be used for more a efficient fight against the aforementioned invasive species. In total, 42 new localities were recorded for Ailanthus altissima, 10 for Ambrosia artemisiifolia and 15 for Reynoutria japonica. Due to their abundance and appearance, Ailanthus altissima and Reynoutria japonica have already become a big problem for urban horiculture in Sarajevo, while Ambrosia artemisiifolia poses a health concern, and therefore, urgent measures and necessary to remove them.
