“…Eight species are known as invasive alien species ( [40], www.nobanis. Another four species are confirmed warm water species that have expanded their ranges into the North Sea from more southern latitudes during the last 30 years: Goneplax rhomboides (Linnaeus, 1758) [49,50], Necora puber (Linnaeus, 1767) [51][52][53], Thia scutellata (Fabricius, 1793) [49,54] and Diogenes pugilator (P. Roux, 1829) [55]. It is important to note that most of these species were identified as range-expanding based on a subset of the data we analysed, specifically based on the collections of the SMF from the 1970s on.…”

“…We used multifarious sources, i.e. known species lists for declining species [39], invasive species [40] and species that have expanded their range into the North Sea [49,51,52,54,55], early species accounts of the area [45][46][47][48]63,64], as well as the large public geographic information databases OBIS and GBIF.…”

Changing species assemblages represent major challenges to ecosystems around the world. Retracing these changes is limited by our knowledge of past biodiversity. Natural history collections represent archives of biodiversity and are therefore an unparalleled source to study biodiversity changes. In the present study, we tested the value of natural history collections for reconstructing changes in the abundance and presence of species over time. In total, we scrutinized 17 080 quality-checked records for 242 epibenthic invertebrate species from the North and Baltic Seas collected throughout the last 200 years. Our approaches identified eight previously reported species introductions, 10 range expansions, six of which are new to science, as well as the long-term decline of 51 marine invertebrate species. The cross-validation of our results with published accounts of endangered species and neozoa of the area confirmed the results for two of the approaches for 49 to 55% of the identified species, and contradicted our results for 9 to 10%. The results based on relative record trends were less validated. We conclude that, with the proper approaches, natural history collections are an unmatched resource for recovering early species introductions and declines.

Introduced species in a tidal ecosystem of mud and sand: curse or blessing?

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

For about a century, biodiversity in the tidal Wadden Sea (North Sea, European Atlantic) has increased by more than one hundred introduced species from overseas. Most originate from warmer waters and could facilitate the transformation of this coastal ecosystem to comply with climate warming. Some introduced species promote sediment stabilization and mud accretion. This could help tidal flats to keep up with sea level rise. Although some introduced species also entail negative effects, introductions have diversified lower food web levels, and may benefit foraging birds. So far, no resident populations have gone extinct because an introduced species had established. Rather than degrading the ecosystem, the establishment of introduced species seems to have raised the capacity to follow environmental change. We support increasing efforts against introductions to avoid risk. However, once species are integrated, the common condemnation attitude against “non-natives” or “aliens” ought to be reconsidered for tidal ecosystems of low biodiversity.
