Image Caption: Southeast shores of Lake Victoria, in east central Africa. Water Hyacinth have been introduced to the lake and is giving many coastal fishing villages a difficult time for water navigation. There are some green areas along the coastlines in this photo. A scientist working in this area will be able to tell us whether it is water hyacinth or regular coastal vegetation.
