Assessing the ecological risk posed by a recently established invasive alien predator: Harmonia axyridis as a case study

Abstract

The authors describe a method developed to assess which European ladybird species are most at risk following the invasion of H. axyridis. The 3 components of the risk assessment are: the likelihood that the assessed native species encounters H. axyridis in the field the hazard of competition for food the IGP hazard
