title: International Non-native Insect Establishment Data

description: These data list individual non-native insect species established in nine regions around the globe (New Zealand, South Korea, Japan, Okinawa, Ogasawara, Europe, Great Britain, North America (north of Mexico), Hawaii and Galapagos). Taxonomic attributes and occurrences for each taxa are included. Intentionally introduced species have not been comprehensively included, but where they have been included they are indicated in the intentional_release column. There are also a few records of species temporarily established but which have since been eradicated (indicated in the “eradicated” column). Europe means geographical Europe including European Russia and Great Britain, while Great Britain may include some species established from continental Europe. This dataset was assembled from various sources by an interdisciplinary scientific working group funded by the National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center - see https://www.sesync.org/project/propose-a-pursuit/global-socioeconomic-drivers-of-insect-invasions. Also, see the main source references in the References metadata section for this publication. Data have been cleaned of most typographic and taxonomic errors using the code in the R package insectcleanr: Initial release (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4555787), which is based on the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) taxonomic backbone (GBIF Secretariat (2021). GBIF Backbone Taxonomy. Checklist dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/39omei accessed via GBIF.org on 2021-04-09). <em>DISCLAIMER: This dataset is provisional.
