• High uncertainty• Not enough research • 212 peer-reviewed papers involving SSW (Web of Science, Jan. 2018)
• But only 11 addressing as non-native species in North America
• Only 1 of those documenting ecological impacts***

Ecological impacts
A nearly universal pattern in ecology is that species are rare in most locations and abundant in a few
