Description
The Checklist of non-native freshwater fishes in Flanders, Belgium is a species checklist dataset published by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO). It contains information on 23 alien fish species occurring in Flemish natural and semi-natural waterbodies, detected in sampling between 1992 and 2006. This species checklist was assessed within the framework of the Freshwater Fish Monitoring Network by Verreycken et al. (2007) and reassessed for Verreycken et al. (2018). Here it is published as a standardized Darwin Core Archive and includes for each species: the scientific name, kingdom, and stable taxon identifier (in the taxon core), the Dutch and English vernacular name (in the vernacular names extension), the year of first introduction in Flanders (given as a year range, with the year of last observation empty), the pathway(s) of introduction and the degree of establishment in Flanders (in the distribution extension), coarse habitat information (in the species profile extension) and native range(s) (in the description extension). The dataset can be used for researching and managing aquatic invasions or compiling regional and national registries of alien species. Issues with the dataset can be reported at: https://github.com/trias-project/alien-fishes-checklist

This dataset was published as open data for the TrIAS project (Tracking Invasive Alien Species http://trias-project.be, Vanderhoeven et al. 2017), with technical support provided by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO). It is selected as one of the authoritative sources for the compilation of a unified and reproducible checklist of alien species in Belgium.

Couverture géographique
This checklist covers alien fish species found in natural and semi-natural waterbodies in Flanders (northern Belgium). Sampling for these species occurred between 1992 and 2016 at 1.426 sites characterized as lacustrine or riverine habitats, including head streams, tributaries, canals, disconnected river meanders, water retaining basins, ponds, and lakes. All sampling sites are located in Flanders and are part of the drainage of the rivers Yser, Scheldt and Meuse.

Couverture taxonomique
In total, 25 non-native freshwater fishes have been collected in Flanders of which four are very common, five common and sixteen rare to extremely rare. Most alien fishes belong to the Cypriniformes (36%) and Perciformes (25%), followed by Siluriformes and Acipenseriformes (both 12%) and Salmoniformes and Esociformes (both 4%) (Verreycken et al. 2018).

Données sur le projet
Imagine a future where dynamically, from year to year, we can track the progression of alien species (AS), identify emerging species, assess their current and future risk and timely inform policy in a seamless data-driven workflow. One that is built on open science and open data infrastructures. By using international biodiversity standards and facilities, we would ensure interoperability, repeatability and sustainability. This would make the process adaptable to future requirements in an evolving IAS policy landscape both locally and internationally. The project Tracking Invasive Alien Species (TrIAS) aims to do this for Belgium. For a full project description, see Vanderhoeven et al. (2017, https://doi.org/10.3897/rio.3.e13414).

| Description du domaine d'étude / de recherche | Belgium. |
| Description du design | The project builds on two components: 1) The establishment of a data mobilization framework for alien species data from diverse data sources and 2) the development of data-driven procedures for risk evaluation based on risk modelling, risk mapping and risk assessment. TrIAS uses facilities from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF, http://www.gbif.org), standards from the Biodiversity Information Standards organization (TDWG, http://www.tdwg.org) and expertise from LifeWatch INBO (http://lifewatch.inbo.be) to create and facilitate a systematic workflow. Alien species data are gathered from a large set of regional, national and international initiatives, including citizen science data, with a wide taxonomic scope from marine, terrestrial and freshwater environments. Observation data are funnelled in repeatable ways to GBIF. In parallel, a Belgian checklist of alien species is established, benefiting from various taxonomic and project-based checklists foreseen for GBIF publication. |

Description des étapes de la méthode:
- The source data for this standardized checklist is an Excel spreadsheet, given by Hugo Verreycken, who is using it as a basis for Verreycken et al. (2018).
- This raw data file was uploaded to a GitHub repository (https://github.com/trias-project/alien-fishes-checklist). See https://trias-project.github.io/alien-fishes-checklist for an introduction to this repository and the mapping of this dataset.
- We developed a RMarkdown script to document and perform the transformation of the data to Darwin Core, which includes the following steps:
- Perform some basic data cleaning of the raw data.
- Generate stable and unique identifiers for each taxon (taxonID).
- Create a taxon core file (http://rs.gbif.org/core/dwc_taxon.xml).
- Create a vernacular names extension file (http://rs.gbif.org/extension/gbif/1.0/vernacularname.xml) with Dutch and English names.
- Create a distribution extension file (http://rs.gbif.org/extension/gbif/1.0/distribution.xml), including standardization of the distribution date range.
- Create a species profile extension file (http://rs.gbif.org/extension/gbif/1.0/speciesprofile.xml), with coarse habitat information.
- Create a description extension file (http://rs.gbif.org/extension/gbif/1.0/description.xml), with standardized pathway of introduction (using the pathway vocabulary from the Convention on Biological Diversity (2014)), native range (using the WGSRPD vocabulary from Brummitt (2001) where applicable), and invasion stage (based on Blackburn et al. (2011)).
- The resulting Darwin Core data files are uploaded to the INBO IPT and documented with metadata.
- The dataset is published and registered with GBIF.
