摘要：Non-indigenous marine species (NIMS) are organisms that have moved, or been moved from
their natural environment to another area either by natural dispersal or anthropogenic means.
While many NIMS remain inconspicuous and innocuous, they can potentially threaten human
health, economic, social and cultural values or the environment, thereby becoming introduced
marine pests (IMPs). Early detection of marine pest incursions is critical if there is to be an
attempt at eradication. Community-based monitoring for IMPs can provide an effective early
warning mechanism, complimenting other monitoring activities around the State.
