Non Native Species Across Wales (1989 to 2012) (Extracted from BIOSYS)

The aim of this data capture was to monitor the distribution of non-native species across Wales. Any non-native species present in a sample were recorded when they were 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 monitoring sites. At the time of surveying between 1970s and 2012, non-native species did not have a specific monitoring programme.

Metadata Language: English

Lineage: The primary purpose of this data capture was to monitoring the distribution of aquatic and riparian species. Whilst these surveys were conducted the location and date of surveys which included non-native species was also recorded. This dataset is split into one whole non native species layerfile and individual species, such as Crayfish Non Native Species.
