Protected Areas - Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species - Mountain Zebra 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 Mountain Zebra National Park, South Africa

保护区外来入侵物种全球登记库（Protected Areas -Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species, PA-GRIIS）提供经验证的点位级引入（外来）物种与外来入侵物种清单。PA-GRIIS的核心宗旨是，为指定保护区（如国家公园、拉姆萨尔湿地（Ramsar Sites）——国际重要湿地、世界遗产地（自然与混合类）、海洋保护区等）、其他生物多样性重要区域（如重要植物区（Important Plant Areas, IPA）、重要鸟区（Important Bird Areas, IBA）等），以及上述区域周边的缓冲区，提供现存引入（外来）物种与外来入侵物种的清单。保护区周边及其他高生物多样性重要区域可作为外来与入侵物种种源的扩散来源。设立缓冲区并对区内外来与入侵物种开展管理，是预防引入、防控/治理生物入侵的关键管理策略，针对岛屿缓冲区亦是如此。清单属于动态更新的实体，鉴于生物入侵问题日益严峻，这一点尤为突出。PA-GRIIS清单基于GRIIS发布的方法学（Pagad等，2018），并获得全球生物多样性信息设施（Global Biodiversity Information Infrastructure, GBIF）的整合发布工具支持，二者共同助力清单的持续优化与更新，以扩大其分类学覆盖范围与完整性。PA-GRIIS项目第一阶段将推出近100份精选保护区及其他生物多样性重要区域的引入（外来）物种与外来入侵物种示范清单。本带注释清单收录了已知分布于南非国家级指定山斑马国家公园的引入（外来）物种与外来入侵物种。
