Protected Areas - Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species - Addo-Elephant National Park, South Africa

The Protected Areas -Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species (PA-GRIIS) presents validated checklists of introduced (alien) and invasive alien species at a site level. The primary intention of PA-GRIIS is to provide checklists of introduced (alien) and invasive species present on designated protected areas (such as National Parks, Ramsar sites- Wetlands of International importance, World Heritage Sites (natural and mixed), Marine protected areas etc.) and other areas of biodiversity significance (such as Important Plant Areas (IPA), Important Bird Areas (IBA) etc.), as well as buffer zones around these areas. Areas surrounding protected areas and other areas of high biodiversity significance can serve as an invasion source of alien and invasive species propagules. The establishment of buffer zones and the management of alien and invasive species within these areas is a key management strategy in the prevention of introduction and control/management of biological invasions. In the case of islands buffer zones.

Checklists are living entities, especially for biological invasions given the growing nature of the problem. PA -GRIIS checklists are based on the GRIIS published methodology (Pagad et al 2018) and supported by the Integrated Publishing Tool of the Global Biodiversity Information Infrastructure (GBIF) that jointly enable ongoing improvements and updates to expand their taxonomic coverage and completeness.

Phase 1 of the PA -GRIIS project will present close to 100 exemplar checklists of introduced (alien) and invasive species in a selection of protected areas and other areas of biodiversity significance

This annotated checklist is of introduced (alien) and invasive alien species known to occur in the nationally designated Addo-Elephant National Park, South Africa

《受保护区域——全球外来及入侵物种注册表》（PA-GRIIS）呈现了在特定地点层面经过验证的引入（非本地）及入侵非本地物种清单。PA-GRIIS的宗旨在于提供指定受保护区域（如国家公园、拉姆萨尔湿地——国际重要湿地、世界遗产地（自然和混合类型）、海洋保护区等）以及其他生物多样性重要区域（如重要植物区域（IPA）、重要鸟类区域（IBA）等）及其周边缓冲区的引入（非本地）及入侵物种清单。受保护区域及其他生物多样性高度重要区域的周边地区可能成为外来及入侵物种的传播源。在这些区域建立缓冲区以及管理外来及入侵物种是预防物种引入和控制/管理生物入侵的关键管理策略。在岛屿区域，缓冲区的设立同样至关重要。清单作为动态实体，尤其在生物入侵问题日益严峻的背景下，更显其重要性。PA-GRIIS清单基于GRIIS发布的方法（Pagad等，2018年）并得到全球生物多样性信息基础设施（GBIF）集成发布工具的支持，共同促进其分类覆盖范围和完整性的持续改进和更新。PA-GRIIS项目的第一阶段将展示近100份受保护区域及其他生物多样性重要区域的引入（非本地）及入侵物种的示范清单。此标注清单记录了已知存在于南非国家指定阿多-象国家公园的引入（非本地）及入侵非本地物种。
