Comparing the IUCN’s EICAT and Red List to improve assessments of the impact of biological invasions [PDF]

NeoBiota, 2020
The IUCN recommends the use of two distinct schemes to assess the impacts of biological invasions on biodiversity at the species level. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (Red List) categorises native species based on their risk of extinction.
