  abstract = {{B}iological invasion science lacks standardised measures of invasion success that would provide effective prioritisation of invasive species and invaded areas management. {P}revalence (area of occupancy) of invasive species is often used as proxy of their success but this metric ignores the extent to which a species fills its potential distribution. {T}his study aims to estimate the performance of invasive tree species by computing the ratio between the compressed canopy area ({CCA}), assessed through remote sensing, and their potential distribution, estimated using invasive species distribution modelling. {T}his index of 'range filling' ({RF}) has applicability to a broad set of invasive plant species in any biome. {A} case study is provided using the invasive {A}frican tulip tree {S}pathodea campanulata ({B}ignoniaceae) on three small tropical oceanic islands ({S}outh {P}acific) exhibiting different invasion levels to test for differences between {CCA} and {RF}. {T}he results show that the {RF} of {S}pathodea campanulata varied within islands depending on elevation but not proportionally to the {CCA} of the species. {A}nother key result was that the {RF} of the species and its {CCA} provided different between-island perspectives on the invasions and lead to distinct ranking among islands to prioritise for management. {T}herefore, managers should disregard species' prevalence as a measure of success and rather weight it with potential distribution to quantify how an invader is performing in a given environment.},
