Title

Species Surveys - Non-Native Species

Abstract

Invasive non-native species surveyed and collected during the Environment Agency (EA)monitoring activities including location and date of survey. Primarily aquatic and riparian species. Any non-native species present in a sample are recorded when they are of the target group, for example Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus lenisculus) in a benthic invertebrate sample or Canadian pondweed (Elodea Canadensis) in a plant survey. Other non-native species are recorded when seen at or around Environment Agency monitoring sites. Non-native species do not have a specific monitoring programme. These data are peer reviewed. The records are for England only. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2016. All rights reserved.

Lineage

Non-Native Species are surveyed and collected through the Environment Agency's monitoring activities and from 1970 onwards. Non-native species do not have a specific monitoring programme and are extracted from BIOSYS, National Fish Population Database (NFPD), River Habitat Survey (Ecosys) and ad hoc records collated from other surveys.
