Yes there is. Noxious invasive species that have no natural checks are most definitely weeds.

Consider Scottish thistle in Oregon. It literally locks off grazing and food for wild animals, and our climate and ecology does not provide any natural checks against it's growth unlike it's natural habitat.

It's a horrible, 6-8ft tall, 4-6ft wide sprout of thorns and hate that is wrecking wild lands and cultivated land alike.
