Managing the invasion front: spatial predictors of invasive alien species expansion in Italy under EU Regulation 1143/2014

Francesco Bisi, Alessandro Calabrese, Emanuele Vegini, Francesca Santicchia et autres

Regulation (EU) No. 1143/2014 on invasive alien species (IAS)(European Union 2014) represents the main legislative framework for the prevention and management of biological invasions within the European Union. Since its implementation, two official reporting cycles have been completed (2014–2018 and 2019–2024), during …

African swine fever vs. COVID-19: only one virus mattered for wild boar hunting bags in Europe

Valentina Barukčić, Boštjan Pokorny, Jacopo Cerri, Klaus Hackländer et autres

Wild boar (Sus scrofa) populations have been steadily increasing across Europe in the last decades, due to the synergy between landscape modifications, the ecological plasticity of the species and global warming. However, since 2014, an increasing number of these populations have also …

TRACKS: Six good practices for Non-Indigenous Species research and their SWOT evaluation

Ernesto Azzurro, Pierluigi Strafella, Sandro Bertolino, Lucilla Carnevali et autres

Addressing the challenges posed by Non Indigenous Species (NIS) demands coordinated efforts across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems. In this study, we used the Italian research network as a case study to identify and evaluate measures designed to enhance NIS research through …

The Role of Hunting, Zoos and Aquaria as Pathways for Vertebrate Invasions

Andrea Monaco, Riccardo Scalerà, Lucilla Carnevali, Piero Genovesi

Hunting has been one of the main pathways of introducing non-native mammals and birds worldwide. Non-native game species can have a negative impact on biodiversity and the economy. In recent decades, the intentional introduction of new non-native species has decreased for several …

Horizon scanning for potential invasive non‐native species across the United Kingdom Overseas Territories

Wayne Dawson, Jodey Peyton, Oliver L. Pescott, Tim Adriaens et autres

Abstract Invasive non‐native species (INNS) are recognized as a major threat to island biodiversity, ecosystems, and economies globally. Preventing high‐risk INNS from being introduced is the most cost‐effective way to avoid their adverse impacts. We applied a horizon scanning approach to identify …

Blacklists do not necessarily make people curious about invasive alien species. A case study with Bayesian structural time series and Wikipedia searches about invasive mammals in Italy

Jacopo Cerri, Lucilla Carnevali, Andrea Monaco, Piero Genovesi et autres

Blacklists of invasive alien species (IAS) are a popular tool for managing and preventing biological invasions. Moreover, blacklists also have the potential to make the general public more curious about biological invasions, usually by benefiting from media coverage and providing accessible examples …

A framework for prioritising present and potentially invasive mammal species for a national list

Sandro Bertolino, Leonardo Ancillotto, Paola Bartolommei, G Benassi et autres

The European Union (EU) has recently adopted a regulation on invasive alien species that foresees the possibility of developing lists of species of National Concern. We developed a prioritisation process for alien mammals already established in Italy, but not yet included in …

Jacopo Cerri, Sandro Bertolino, Lucilla Carnevali, Andrea Monaco et autres

Blacklists of invasive alien species are a popular tool to manage and prevent biological invasions. Furthermore, by providing accessible examples of invasive alien species and by having a certain media resonance, they can in principle raise the awareness and make laypeople curious …

Shifting to broad patterns of interests in conservation culturomics with Bayesian dynamic factor analysis

Jacopo Cerri, Sandro Bertolino, Lucilla Carnevali, Alessandro Piazzi et autres

Biological invasions are a major driver of global change and the target of many public policies. However, we still do not know whether they attract the interest of laypeople and motivate them to know more about this topic. We modeled the temporal …
