Sažetak
On 1 January 2015 the EU Regulation 1143/2014 on invasive alien species entered into force. The Regulation is binding in its entirety and directly applicable in Croatia as one of the EU Member States. At the core of the Regulation there is a list of invasive alien species of Union concern (the Union list). The first Union list was adopted in July 2016 (Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1141). The list contains 14 plant and 23 animal species. Nine species from the list are considered to be present in Croatia, either in established populations or occasionally recorded. The Regulation foresees three types of intervention that every Member State has to apply in relation to the species on the Union list: (1) prevention, (2) early detection and rapid eradication of new IAS, and (3) management of IAS that are already widely spread. Each type of intervention requires specific actions to be taken by the Member States (analysis of introduction pathways, establishment of action plan(s) addressing priority pathways, establishment of the surveillance system, putting in place management measures for widespread species etc.) and for every action the timeframe is given. The Regulation also foresees the continuous updating of the Union list as well as the possibility of establishment of national and regional lists (IAS of regional and national concern). Given all the possibilities and obligations set out in the Regulation, it is clear that concerted action of all relevant sectors at the national level is necessary to fulfil all the requirements and to successfully combat IAS.
