Eradications of invasive alien species in Europe: a review (2005, background): “…organisms have been eradicated in some cases (when invasion was still localized) as a Mussel (Mytilopsis sp.) introduced in Cullen Bay (Australia) (Bax et al. 2002) and a sabellid polychaete (Terebrasabella heterouncinata) successfully removed from a mariculture facility in California (Galil…”
Marine invasive alien species: a threat to global biodiversity (2003, background): “For example the 1999 black striped mussel invasion in Darwin occurred in artificial marinas, closed off from local tidal exchange, subject to periodic freshwater inflows (that kills off the invertebrate fauna) and with a recent history of sewage pollution [19].”
The Invasive Species Challenge in Estuarine and Coastal Environments: Marrying Management and Science (2008, background): “We did not include small geographically restricted Table 1 Examples of economic impacts of introduced estuarine and marine species Introduced Species Economic Impact Estimated Cost Reference Seaweeds Caulerpa taxifolia Eradication >US$6M (6 year) Authors killer algae Codium fragile v. tomentosoides ”
Rapid assessment of the distribution of marine non-native species in marinas in Scotland (2006, background): “2005) and marinas have been described as “sheltered islands” for marine alien organisms (Bax et al. 2002).”
Improving biodiversity monitoring (2012, background): “Thus, mussel infestation was discovered when populations were small enough to be eradicated (Bax et al. 2002) thereby saving millions of dollars had the mussel spread further.”
Options for Managing Invasive Marine Species (2004, background): “), physical removal of the most susceptible native molluscan hosts for a South African sabellid (Terebrasabella heteroucinata) in California (Culver and Kuris 1999; Kuris 2003), and biocidal eradication of a bivalve (Mytilopsis sallei) in an enclosed lagoon at Darwin, Australia (Bax et al. 2002).”
New Zealand pest management: current and future challenges (2015, background): “For example, few mussel farmers use chemicals to control biofouling in New Zealand, whereas in other countries, chemicals have been used to eradicate or manage marine pests such as the black-striped mussel (Mytilopsis sallei Récluz) in Darwin (Bax et al. 2002) and ‘killer algae’ (Caulerpa taxifolia ”
Introduced species policy, management, and future research needs (2005, background): “…of the weed Kochia scoparia from Western Australia (Randall 2001), the removal of the Caribbean black-striped mussel (Mytilopsis sallei) from Darwin Harbour (Bax et al. 2002), and a substantial decline in coverage of melaleuca (Melaleuca quinquenervia; Figure 3) in south Florida (Silvers 2004).”
Genetic control of invasive fish: technological options and its role in integrated pest management (2014, background): “Invasive pests can be eradicated if detected soon after establishment or if the invaded area is small and the targeted population closed (Dahlsten and Garcia 1989; Bax et al. 2002; Culver and Kuris 2000; Veitch and Clout 2002).”
