The categories describing the main invasion biology attributes are partly consistent and/or comparable with attributes already available in databases in neighbouring countries.

 

Nativeness

Categories:

  • Native species: Those species are considered native which were present in Hungary in the Holocene (≈5000 BC) or were present in nature at least intermittently in subsequent periods (e.g., Quercus robur). Species that became extinct during the Holocene, before the Neolithic, and were later introduced into Hungary with human assistance are not considered indigenous.
  • Alien species: Species that settled in Hungary after the appearance of major human population and the associated interventions (appearing since the beginning of the Neolithic period in the territory of Hungary, ≈ 5000 BC), mainly those that would have been unable to overcome the natural barriers that prevented their spread without human interventions (e.g., Centaurea cyanus).
  • Cryptogenic species: Any species for which it is debatable whether it is native or alien in Hungary (e.g., Abies alba). Here we interpret this term only in terms of species’ nativeness to Hungary.
  • Not confirmed: Species with no confirming specimens from Hungary (e.g., Pyrola media).
  • Planted only: Only planted, cultivated specimens or stands are known from Hungary (e.g., Metasequoia glyptostroboides).
