The Invasive Species Profiles List is a overview of all invasive species profiles included on our Web site with primary common and scientific names, and is searchable. If you prefer to view our profiles by species type and habitat, see our main Species Profiles page.
These are lists of invasive species by country or region.
Provides lists and information for species declared invasive, noxious, prohibited, or otherwise harmful or potentially harmful. Information is organized by geographical location, covering the U.S.
The gateway to invasive species information; covering federal, state, local, and international sources. Invasive species are plants, animals, or pathogens that are non-native (or alien) to the ecosystem under consideration, and whose introduction causes or is likely to cause harm.
An invasive species refers to an organism that is not native to a specific region and poses significant economic and environmental threats to its new habitat. [1] The term "invasive species" can also refer to feral species or introduced diseases.
Invasive species are non-native plants, animals and other living organisms that thrive in areas where they don’t naturally live and cause (or are likely to cause) economic or environmental harm, or harm to human, animal or plant health.
Invasive alien species are animals, plants or other organisms that are introduced by humans, either intentionally or accidentally, into places outside of their natural range, negatively impacting native biodiversity, ecosystem services or human economy and well-being.
When these non-native species take root in new ecosystems and start causing trouble, they become known as invasive species. Many species that are introduced to a region, such as U.S. food crops...
The list of “100 of the World’s Worst Invasive Alien Species” that is presented here is designed to en-hance awareness of the fascinating complexity, and also the terrible consequences, of invasive alien species. Species were selected for the list according to two criteria: their serious impact on biological diversity and/or human activities,
Invasive animals, plants and pathogens pose a persistent and growing threat to U.S. agricultural production, forest resources, global food security and rural economies. These threats have real implications, not just for farmers, ranchers, and natural resource managers, but for all Americans.
