A key global change challenge is to significantly reduce the risks of alien taxa causing harmful impacts without compromising rights citizens. As part efforts address this challenge, South Africa promulgated comprehensive regulations and lists in 2014. In paper, we review how developed, changed over time, they have been implemented. March 2021, 560 were listed under four broad regulatory categories, between 2014 2020, almost 3000 permits issued regulate continued use taxa. The full regulated taxa, issued, corresponding are available Supplementary material. proposed standardised, transparent, science-informed process revise also presented – as 30 April 2024, risk analyses developed for 140 using Risk Analysis Alien Taxa (RAAT) framework reviewed by an independent scientific body [the Species Review Panel (ASRARP)] with input from taxon-specific experts. These recommendations being considered interdepartmental governmental decision-making established 2023 Committee (RARC)]. Finally, issues listing that remain be resolved presented. Africa’s continues develop, regulating will, believe, become more consistent, acceptable stakeholders, ultimately facilitate

Human livelihoods and well-being in almost all regions of the world depend on taxa which are alien. Such also, however, threaten human health, sustainable development, biodiversity. Since it is not feasible or desirable to control alien taxa, decision-makers increasingly rely risk analyses formalise best available evidence threats posed whether how they can be managed. There a variety schemes that consider risks but we argue new framework needed: 1) given major recent developments international frameworks dealing with biological invasions (including scoring impacts); 2) so decisions made consistently across realms; 3) explicitly set out uncertainties; 4) provide information both what done mitigate prevent impacts. Any such scheme must also flexible enough deal constraints capacity information. Here present address these points – Risk Analysis for Alien Taxa (RAAT). It outlines series questions related an taxon’s likelihood invasion, realised potential impacts, options management. The provides structure collating relevant data from published literature support robust, transparent process list under legislative regulatory requirements, aim completed by trained science graduate within few days. defensible developing recommendations management assessed taxa. We trialled South Africa outline followed some date.

The Environmental Impact Classification for Alien Taxa (EICAT) can be used to classify alien taxa according the magnitude and type of their environmental impacts. EICAT protocol, classifications using protocol (EICAT classification) data underpinning data) are increasingly by scientists practitioners such as governments, NGOs civil society a variety purposes. However, properties it generates not suitable certain uses. Therefore, we present guidelines designed clarify facilitate appropriate use tackle broad range conservation issues related biological invasions, well guide research communication more generally. Here address common misconceptions give brief overview some key that all users need aware take maximal advantage this resource. Furthermore, examples wide ways in which have been utilised outline errors pitfalls avoid.
