Abstract

Marine benthic species introduced to the Az-ores are collated from scientific publications, internal reports and own data. Twelve algae and 21 invertebrates are classified as non-indigenous species, 18 as crypto-genic. Two species of algae and two ascidians are re-garded as particularly invasive along the shores of this oceanic archipelago.
