Invasive species

Invasive non-native species pathways in Brazil a priority-setting assessment

700 pathways/vectors for 319 invasive non-native animal species, and 596 for 238 plant species

Georeferenced database of invasive non-native species occurrences in Brazil

187,160 georeferenced records of 489 invasive species of fauna, flora, and algae across Brazilian terrestrial, freshwater and marine territories.

Factors explaining species richness of invasive plants in Neotropical forests

Higher temperature seasonality and accessibility were strong positive predictors of invasive plant richness.

Invasive non-native species in Brazil an updated overview

We provide an updated list of invasive animals, plants and algae in Brazil that is fully integrated and based on the same criteria and lexicon to define invasive species across all plant and animal taxa and habitats for Brazil.

Understanding willow invasion in subtropical highlands

In this study, we characterized the population structure of the hybrid invasive tree *Salix × rubens*, determined the stage of the invasion process, and identified relevant factors for the establishment of regenerating plants in a subtropical riparian system.

Is the use of drones cost-effective and efficient in detecting invasive alien trees? A case study from a subtropical coastal ecosystem

We present in this paper the assessment of the effectiveness of using drones to detect invasive pines in a protected area in a coastal ecosystem of southern Brazil.

Estimating yield and control costs of Pinus spp. invasions – a case study in a municipal protected area in Atlantic Forest, Florianópolis, Brazil

Despite the higher individual cost, isolated pine trees must be controlled first to avoid higher future costs from abundant seed spread.
