The alga C. webbiana was detected for the first time in 2002 outside the Port of Horta jetty and within three years its dispersion in the surrounding area led to the implementation of a study plan focusing on its distribution and possible impact on indigenous communities (Amat and tempera, 2009)....
In Santa Maria this species was observed in 7 sites with a large proliferation, with coverage rates of 100 % in some points, in Pedrinha. The results suggest that the species is still restricted to this island as recent campaigns in Corvo, Faial, Graciosa and São Miguel during 2016 and 2017 ...

Description element
In September 2013, the marine toxic dinoflagelate Alexandrium minutum (Santos et al., 2013) was registered for the first time in the Azores following a toxic bloom that occurred in the Santo Cristo Lagoa on the island of São Jorge, Azores, which led to the death of fish, poisoning of locally expl...
First registration of the species in the Ponta Delgada marina in samples taken under the PIMA project (Micael et al., 2017), identify the vessels? hulls as a vector for introduction and classify this briozoary as NIS for the Azores region. Micael, J., tempera, F., Berning, B., López-fé, C.M., Oc...
Amphibian specimens were collected between November 2013 and March 2015 from different non-indigenous briozoary species present on hard artificial substrates (ropes, pontoons and buoys) in Ponta Delgada marina (Ana C. Costa et al., 2017). This species is native to Asia (Japan and China) and in 20...
In June, in 2017 the Polyquette Taxonomy Workshop allowed the identification of specimens of Sabelliidae collected from Ponta Delgada marina as Branchiomma luctuosum. His presence at the marina of Vila do Porto, on the island of Santa Maria, was also recorded. This species, native to the Red Sea,...
Species associated with non-indigenous briozoa present in Ponta Delgada marina and therefore the introduction vector will most likely be recreational craft (Gillon et al., 2017). Perhaps because its introduction into Europe is quite recent, there is still no record of invasive behaviour of this s...
Neto, com. pess.) at the time, occupying a spot of a few cm². In the same year (2013) this alga was also observed in a pot on the northern coast of the island of Faial, Porto da Eira (Cardigos et al., 2013). Cardigos, F., tempera, F., Fontes, J., Ribeiro, P., Sala, I., Caldeira, R., Santos, R. ...
Species registered in 2014 in Vila Franca Marina in São Miguel (Ana C. Costa et al., 2017) and identified as NIS in the Azores region in 2016 (ICES, 2016).
Recently found in the archipelago, it is considered worrying that the species, known as Australian polytuber, is an aggressive invasor which grows very rapidly to considerable abundance. Although the arrival of F. enigmaticus in the Azores is not surprised in view of its establishment at the same...
It is a green alga made up of calcified segments, first observed in the Azores in 2016 as part of PIMA and bullet campaigns. In the Azores, it was found in the subtidal up to 30 m deep and is present on the southern coast of the island of Santa Maria on rocky bottoms, even though it was also...
It is a red filamentary alga collected for the first time in the Azores in 2016 as part of the campaigns of this project and the bullet project. This species was found in São Miguel and Santa Maria in the subtidal up to 25 m deep and is present in the southern coasts of São Miguel and Santa ...
Bright red sponge of very thin thickness was found in boat hulls in São Miguel, covering several other organisms. There is an observation of Mycale (Carmia) subclavata (Bowerbank, 1866) from 1989 by Van Soest, Beglinger, and De Voogd (2014) for the port of Horta in 1989. The organisms sampled in ...
Since 2013, specimens of oysters had been found at Ponta Delgada marina, confirmation of their identity as Ostrea edulis was not possible until May 2017 after their identification had been confirmed by the oyster taxonomy, Dra. Vanessa Simão do Amaral of the Zoology Museum of the University of Sã...
Paraceruma sculpta is able to live in a wide variety of habitats, covering coasts and lagoons from subtropical to temperate regions. It was mainly associated with non-indigenous briozoa such as Amathia verticillata, Bugula neritina and Tricellaria inopinata. Outside its native band, the species w...
The species of seafood shellfish was reported for the first time in the Azores in 2013 (Ávila et al., 2015) at the 10th international ?Paleontology in Atlantic Islands? workshop. In the Azores, the species is known only on the island of Santa Maria (Azores ? Eastern Group). The arrival of this sp...
Briozoaries are among the most common infouling organisms in coastal marine environments in the world. The genus Schizoporella has a wide range of latitudinal distribution from polar to tropical regions. The historical records of coastal briozoaries in the Azores date back to the beginning of 190...
Species registered in 2014 in São Miguel and identified as NIS in the Azores region in 2018 (ICES, 2018).
Tricellaria inopinata, whose origin is considered to be the Pacific, has become invasive along the coasts of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic and is now well established in several marinas in the Azores archipelago. Large colonies confirm that the species has baked and propagated in the Azores ...
It is a red filamentary alga and was collected for the first time in the Azores in 2009 during the dispatch from the Department of Biology of the University of the Azores to Santa Maria and subsequently on the same island in 2013 under the asmas project, in 2016 during the shipment from the Waitt...
A. taxiformis occurs on all the islands of the Azores, on rock substrate up to a depth of at least 40 m
The presence of this species in the Azores will be confined to marinas, but a targeted sampling should be carried out to confirm its presence elsewhere, as opportunistic observations in Praia da Vitoria marina revealed its presence.
The alga C. webbiana was detected for the first time in 2002 outside the Port of Horta jetty and within three years its dispersion in the surrounding area led to the implementation of a study plan focusing on its distribution and possible impact on indigenous communities (Amat and tempera, 2009)....

No Arquipélago dos Açores, estudos futuros sobre esta espécie devem investigar as consequências da disseminação na região (Micael et al., 2014). Micael, J., Jardim, N., Núñez, C., Occhipinti-Ambrogi, A., Costa, A.C., 2016. Some Bryozoa species recently introduced into the Azores: Reproductive st...

The Azores Marine NIS list recorded 17 new species during this reporting cycle: Alexandrinun minutum, Trichoclado Lophocladia, Caulerpa prolifera, Halimeda incrassata, Mycale (Carmia) sp., Tricelaria inopinata, Schizoporella errata, Amathia gracilis, Branchiomma cf. luctuosum, Ficopomatus enigmat...
Non-indigenous species are considered to be one of the greatest threats to marine biodiversity. Industrialised habitats such as ports, marinas and aquaculture facilities are sites with the greatest potential for marine invasion due to the high supply of propagating material and/or abiotic charact...
