Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Abstract Invasive alien species (IAS) pose a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly when endowed with high ecological and reproductive plasticity. The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is one such species, widely recognized for its ability to colonize and establish in diverse tropical ecosystems.

Classification of non-indigenous species based on their impacts: Considerations for application in marine management [PDF]
Assessment of the ecological and economic/societal impacts of the introduction of non-indigenous species (NIS) is one of the primary focus areas of bioinvasion science in terrestrial and aquatic environments, and is considered essential to management.
