Examining globally invasive alien birds, the first part of this
book provides an account of 32 global avian invasive species (as
listed by the Invasive Species Specialist Group, ISSG). It acts as
a one stop reference volume; it assesses current invasive status
for each bird species, including details of physical description,
diet, introduction and invasion pathways, breeding behaviour,
natural habitat. It also looks at the environmental impact of each
species, as well as current and future control methods. Full colour
photographs assist with species identification and global
distribution maps give a visual representation of the current known
distributions of these species. The second part of the book
discusses the biogeographical aspects of avian invasions,
highlighting current and emerging invasive species across different
regions of the world. The third section considers the impact of
invasive species on native communities, problems associated with
invasive bird management and the use of citizen science in the
study of invasive birds.
