1 Introduction The qualification of some wildlife species as “invasive alien species” 1 is a man-made qualification and thus necessarily arbitrary. Indeed, how species expand in the wild should not, one is inclined to think, be determined by humans, but should be left to the natural evolution
Nematology Monograph s & Perspectives, 2004, Vol. 2, 125-1 32 Quarantine nematodes or invasive alien species? David McNAMARA * European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization, Paris, France Summary - The Convention on Biodiversity (CBO) has recently been developed as a global agreement
1 Introduction Invasive alien species ( IAS ) have a significant negative influence on natural ecosystems, cultivated ecosystems and managed landscapes. 1 The classification of organisms as alien and invasive distinguishes them from native species that are useful to certain ecosystems. 2
21 Ballast Water and Alien Species: Regulating Global Transfers and Regional Consequences Ecologists deem the alterations caused to biological diversity by the transfer and spread of alien (non-indigenous) invasive species to be one of the most serious threats to biodiversity – second in
