Species import data for estimating the risk of introducing live aquatic organisms by the aquarium, water garden, and seafood trades in Canada / by Tessa R. Brinklow, Farrah T. Chan, D. Andrew R. Drake,... : Fs97-13/1342E-PDF

"The trade of aquarium, water garden, and live food organisms poses a risk of introducing aquatic invasive species (AIS) into Canadian ecosystems because imported organisms may be intentionally or unintentionally released by end-users (i.e. consumers). Understanding the movement of aquatic organisms in trade into and within Canada from source countries globally, via ports of entry, distributors, and ultimately retailers within Canada is critical to gauge the invasion risk posed by these pathways. Data contained in this report were assembled to support a Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) process aimed at evaluating the introduction risk posed by the trade of live aquatic organisms in Canada. Data on species imported through the aquarium, water garden, and live seafood pathways were collected (e.g., description of goods and quantity), along with data about import transactions (e.g., locations of origin, vendors, importer, and destination). This data report provides descriptions of the assembled data, which were used to inform the live trade CSAS Research Document"--Introduction, page 1.
