The Invasive Species Compendium (ISC) is an encyclopedic resource that brings together a wide range of different types of science-based information to support decision-making in invasive species management worldwide. It comprises detailed datasheets that have been written by experts, edited by an independent scientific organization, peer reviewed, and enhanced with data from specialist organizations, images, and maps, a bibliographic database and full text articles. New datasheets and data sets continue to be added, datasheets are reviewed and updated, and scientific literature added on a weekly basis. The ISC has been resourced by a diverse international consortium of government departments, non-governmental organizations and private companies.

This is a one-stop shop for information on invasive species and their effects on natural and managed ecosystems

The Invasive Species Compendium is fully and freely accessible, designed to support the work of everyone faced with the identification, economic assessment and management of invasive species around the world. Please go to www.cabi.org/isc to access this Compendium.
