Sažetak
Croatian Scientific Bibliography – CROSBI (https://www.bib.irb.hr/) is an on-line bibliography that since its launching in 1997 collects scientific publishing of Croatian researchers. Here, we have analysed its content until July 2018, when it contained over 500.000 bibliographic units. Our focus was on “invasive species” term contained in title, abstract or keywords using the CROSBI query form. We have manually excluded those that did not deal with invasive species, but rather with e.g. “invasive diagnostic techniques in medicine” etc. afterward we ended with 515 units. Highest portion (45%) of items belongs to abstract at conferences, followed by papers in journals (30%) and thesis (13.6%). Most surveyed organisms were plants (39% of bibliographic units), followed by insects and crayfish (15% each). Beside fishes and molluscs (8% each), all other groups of organisms were present in less than 5% of the bibliographic units. Most surveyed were terrestrial (52%) and least marine habitats (13%), with rest of the 35% belonging to the freshwater habitats. In year 2006, for the first time number of scientific contributions dealing with “invasive species” exceeded ten items, and continuously rise. We can expect that overall number of contributions on the topic will keep the current, increasing trend. Ratios among different habitat types and group of organisms, probably better reflects the number of active researchers dealing with it, and not the number of invasive species in particular habitat type or its systematic position. However, number of contributions dealing with invasive mammals or birds will most likely going to increase in future from current less than 0.5%.
