Abstract in brief

  • The EU has published its first list of invasive alien species (IAS) that threaten biodiversity, which will require legal action and ongoing updates as new threats emerge.
  • A systematic consensus horizon scanning process was used, involving international experts who identified and ranked 329 potential IAS not yet in the EU based on their risk of arrival, establishment, spread, and impact on biodiversity.
  • The outcome was a refined list of 66 potential IAS categorized by risk level (very high, high, medium), along with details on their potential negative impacts and regions within the EU that may be affected.
