Service Description:

This indicator is based on the presence of the world’s worst invasive species.

Invasive and alien species have been reported around the world, resulting in loss of biodiversity at local and regional scales and causing significant economic damage. Invasive species may be indigenous and/or exotic or alien. They occur mostly in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, both marine and freshwater, and can disrupt the ecological functioning of natural systems. Invasive species can out-compete local and indigenous species for natural resources, with negative implications for biodiversity.
The basis for this indicator is the Invasive Species Specialist Group’s Global Invasive Species Database, which lists 100 of the world’s worst invasive alien species as well as in which countries they are considered invasive. Please note that the source data for this indicator is only available on a country level.

What does very high risk mean for this indicator?
Areas of very high risk have a very high presence of the world’s worst invasive species (>45). See the documentation for more details.
