Sentinel - Invasive exotic species

This theme presents observations of invasive exotic species (IEE) transmitted and validated using the Sentinel tool, an IEE detection system. An invasive exotic species is a plant, animal, or microorganism (virus, bacteria, or fungus) that is introduced outside of its natural range. Its establishment or spread can pose a threat to the environment, economy, or society. The species listed are species of fauna and flora of concern (or potentially of concern) for Quebec's biodiversity. They include EEE present in Quebec and EEE not listed in Quebec to watch out for.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
