The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Ecological Opportunity and Adaptive Radiation (2016, background): “By contrast, exposure to novel predation and disease from introduced species has led to the global extinction of many native species (Sax et al. 2007, Roy et al. 2012, Kraus 2015).”
A global assessment of alien amphibian impacts in a formal framework (2016, background): “Our study takes the scoring of impact further by including all amphibians for which impact scores could be assessed, while another recent study only considered high impact species with limited taxonomic coverage (Kraus, 2015).”
Diversity, biogeography and the global flows of alien amphibians and reptiles (2017, background): “Data on the global distributions of alien amphibians and reptiles are becoming increasingly available, and there is evidence of substantial impacts on native biota (Kraus, 2015), but a global synthesis on both the distribution and the temporal patterns of established alien species is still lacking.”
Application of the Environmental Impact Classification for Alien Taxa (EICAT) to a global assessment of alien bird impacts (2016, result): “The absence of knowledge regarding alien bird impacts reflects the findings of other recent studies on the impacts of alien taxa (Roberts et al., unpubl.; Baker et al., 2014; MartinAlbarracin et al., 2015; Kraus, 2015), and alien birds have even received proportionately lower levels of research effo”
