Researching invasive species

Detailed coverage of invasive species threatening livelihoods and the environment worldwide

The ISC is a constantly developing encyclopaedic resource containing:
Datasheets on over 1500 invasive species and animal diseases
Basic datasheets on further species, countries, habitats and pathways
Bibliographic database of over 75,000 records (updated weekly)
Full text documents (updated weekly)
Video Demo

Updates
Country datasheets now include lists of species and animal diseases and can be found on the Basic Datasheets tab
Datasheets on Pathway causes (reasons for introduction/spread) and Pathway vectors (physical means of introduction/spread) have been added to the browse tree
