Abstract
Introduction of alien species to marine islands leads to destabilization of the unique ecosystems, which are characterized by a high level of ecological vulnerability. A review of alien mammal species in the insular theriocomplexes of the Northwestern Pacific was made and the results of a massive invasion that occurred in the recent 150 years were analyzed. Currently, 43 alien species belonging to 19 families of 7 mammal orders live on the islands of the Northwest Pacific, among which 9 are included in the list of the 14 most dangerous invasive species of the world, and 8 of the 10 most dangerous introduced mammals of the Russian Federation inhabit the islands of the Russian segment of this region.
期刊介绍：
Russian Journal of Biological Invasions publishes original scientific papers dealing with biological invasions of alien species in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and covers the following subjects:description of invasion process (theory, modeling, results of observations and experiments): invasion corridors, invasion vectors, invader species adaptations, vulnerability of aboriginal ecosystems;monitoring of invasion process (reports about findings of organisms out of the limits of natural range, propagule pressure assessment, settling dynamics, rates of naturalization);invasion risk assessment; genetic, evolutional, and ecological consequences of biological invasions of alien species; methods, means of hoarding, processing and presentation of applied research data (new developments, modeling, research results, databases) with factual and geoinformation system applications;use of the results of biological invasion research (methods and new basic results) under the study of marine, fresh-water and terrestrial species, populations, communities and ecosystems; control, rational use and eradication of the harmful alien species..
