摘要: The pet trade has grown in recent years and become the most important pathway for introduction of non-indigenous species amphibians reptiles worldwide. Amphibians traded on market have been widely overlooked systematic invasion studies, so their establishment potential dynamics remain poorly understood, despite fact that impact invaders from this taxonomic group native biota may be considerable. determination common as pets was based a survey Czech Republic, which is an export hub ornamental aquatic animals into European Union (EU). Subsequently, EU determined using proven risk assessment model. scored higher than established Xenopus laevis were additionally evaluated Amphibian Invasiveness Screening Kit (AmphISK). Sixteen (14 Anura, 2Caudata) EU. However, none these reached score already spreading X. Lithobates catesbeianus. closest to threshold value pipiens Pelophylax saharicus. represent rather small within all but should not lead us underestimation invasiveness.
