Economic costs of biological invasions in the United States

Jean E. Fantle-Lepczyk et al.

Summary: This study quantifies the overall costs of invasive species in the United States using a novel global database and finds that these costs have been increasing over time, mainly driven by resource damages and losses, with agriculture being the most impacted sector. Mammals and insects are identified as the taxonomic groups responsible for the greatest costs.

Four priority areas to advance invasion science in the face of rapid environmental change

Anthony Ricciardi et al.

Summary: Unprecedented rates of introduction and spread of non-native species pose challenges to biodiversity, natural resource management, regional economies, and human health. Current biosecurity efforts are failing to keep pace with globalization, revealing gaps in understanding and response to invasions. Four priority areas for advancing invasion science include developing a comprehensive framework for predicting non-native species behavior, understanding synergistic effects of multiple stressors, addressing taxonomic impediments, and emphasizing internationally cooperative biosecurity strategies.

Global economic costs of aquatic invasive alien species

Ross N. Cuthbert et al.

Summary: Research indicates that the global economic cost of aquatic invasive alien species has reached $345 billion, with the majority attributed to invertebrates, vertebrates, and plants. The highest costs were reported in North America and Asia, primarily due to resource damages. The costs of aquatic invasive species have increased exponentially in recent decades, but are likely underreported.

Non-English languages enrich scientific knowledge: The example of economic costs of biological invasions

Elena Angulo et al.

Summary: The study suggests that focusing exclusively on the English language in scientific research may hinder effective communication between scientists and practitioners or policymakers whose native language is non-English, leading to biases and knowledge gaps in global science fields. Combining data from non-English sources enhances data completeness, alleviates biases in understanding invasion costs globally, improves management performance and coordination among experts, and strengthens collaborative actions across countries.

Detailed assessment of the reported economic costs of invasive species in Australia

Corey J. A. Bradshaw et al.

Summary: The legacy of deliberate and accidental introductions of invasive alien species to Australia has resulted in significant economic costs, with at least $298.58 billion (2017 value) spent or lost since the 1960s. Costs have been increasing at an average rate of 1.8-6.3 times per decade, with plants being the primary contributors to the total costs. Different regions in Australia face major costs from different species, but most losses are caused by one to three species.

Economic impact of invasive alien species in Argentina: a first national synthesis

Virginia G. Duboscq-Carra et al.

Summary: This study provides the first analysis of the economic cost of invasive alien species (IAS) in Argentina at the national level, using the InvaCost database. It found that the reported costs of IAS in Argentina are high, yet likely underestimated due to important data gaps and biases in the literature.

Economic costs of invasive alien species in Mexico

Axel Eduardo Rico-Sanchez et al.

Summary: This study utilized data from the InvaCost project to quantify and describe the economic costs of invasions in Mexico. The costs of invasions in Mexico were split between aquatic and terrestrial invaders, with costs from damages to resources four times higher than those from management of IAS.

Economic costs of biological invasions in Asia

Chunlong Liu et al.

Summary: In recent years, invasive species have caused economic losses in Asia totaling US$ 432.6 billion, with the highest costs attributed to insects and mammals, and India and China bearing the highest costs. However, economic cost estimations are lacking for most Asian countries and for over 96% of introduced species in Asia.

Economic costs of invasive species in Germany

Phillip J. Haubrock et al.

Summary: The economic cost of invasive alien species in Germany between 1960 and 2020 was estimated at US$ 9.8 billion, with potential costs of US$ 8.9 billion. The costs were driven by a broad range of taxa, mainly related to control-related spending and resource damages or losses. With increasing invasion rates, economic costs are expected to rise further, highlighting the need for improved evaluation and reporting to effectively manage invasions.

Economic costs of invasive alien species in the Mediterranean basin

Melina Kourantidou et al.

Summary: Invasive alien species (IAS) in the Mediterranean basin have led to significant economic costs, mainly driven by damages and losses from invasions rather than management expenditure. Costs were predominantly attributed to a few countries, primarily France, Spain, Italy, and Libya. The study highlights the need for improved research and data collection to understand the full extent of invasion costs in the region.

Biological invasions in France: Alarming costs and even more alarming knowledge gaps

David Renault et al.

Summary: The increasing number of introduced species poses a serious threat to global biodiversity, with France experiencing both economic losses and management costs due to invasive alien species. Insects and plants are the main contributors to the high economic costs, with significant gaps in cost data for the majority of alien species in France. This highlights the urgent need for improved biosecurity measures and better documentation of cost data.

The economic costs of biological invasions in Central and South America: a first regional assessment

Gustavo Heringer et al.

Summary: The study investigated the geographical pattern of biological invasion costs, monetary expenditure across taxa and impacted sectors, as well as hyper-costly taxa responsible for more than 50% of the costs. The results showed that invasive alien species caused billions of dollars of economic burden in Central and South America, mainly in large countries of South America, with uneven distribution across countries, impacted sectors, types of costs, and hyper-costly taxa. This suggests that efforts should be focused on managing the species that are draining financial sources in impacted sectors.

Economic costs of invasive alien species across Europe

Phillip J. Haubrock et al.

Summary: This study is the first comprehensive effort to quantify the costs of IAS collectively across European countries and examine temporal trends in these data. The total costs of IAS in Europe amounted to US$140.20 billion between 1960 and 2020, with significant impacts in large western and central European countries. Temporally, invasion costs have exponentially increased through time, reaching up to US$23.58 billion in 2013 and an extrapolated US$139.56 billion in impacts in 2020.
