• Typically occurs below 50-70 metres away from the influence of wave action. Aphotic with animal communities in stable or stenothermal and stenohaline conditions. Open sea (Connor et al., 1997).  +
• Unlikely to be damaged as a result of physical impacts, e.g. hard or tough enough to withstand impact, or leathery or wiry enough to resist impact.  +
• Use of a length of byssus thread (e.g. micro-molluscs, juvenile molluscs) or mucus (e.g ''Nemertesia'' planulae) to be carried by water flow  +
• Vertebrate hands, feat, paws etc designed to grasp food items using claws, talons etc.  +
• Where a canal, by joining two bodies of water which were not originally naturally joined, becomes a conduit for invasive species migration to a new area/region.  +
• Where a species (i.e. a bio-control agent) introduced to control a pest, weed or invasive species becomes a problem itself.  +
• Where an introduction of a bio-control agent results in an unintentional introduction of an invasive species (which is carried directly on the bio-control agent itself or along with habitat material associated with the bio-control agent).  +
• Where an invasive species is intentionally introduced into a new area/region for the purpose of stocking/replenishing/establishing a fishery industry based on the invasive species.  +
• Where an invasive species is unintentionally introduced into a new area/region as a result of the movement of fishery related products or materials (ie: not the direct movement of fisheries stock).  +
• Where an invasive species migrates from a known introduced location to a new area/region using a natural mode/mechanism of dispersal; as the original location is part of its introduced range this pathway is included here.  +
• Where floating rafts of man-made materials become vectors for an invasive species.  +
• Where in the process of stocking a fishery an associated invasive species is unintentionally introduced into a new area/region.  +
• Where research activities result in the intentional release of an invasive species into a new area/region.  +
• Where research activities result in the unintentional release of an invasive species into a new area/region.  +
• Where some dietary component(s) are provided by symbiotic organisms (e.g. ''Anemonia'' with zooxanthellae).  +
• Where the movement of recreational equipment by humans results in the introduction of an invasive species into a new area/region.  +
• Where the respiratory organs also power and/or provide a feeding apparatus (muco-cilliary feeding)  +
• Where the species alters boat traffic or impedes ability of boats to navigate waterways.  +
• Where the species alters water levels or causes nuisance fouling on boats/water structures.  +
• Where the species degrades amenities associated with public/tourist sites.  +
• Where the species degrades marine infrastructures or archaeological sites.  +
• Where the species degrades native genetic resources (by hybridizing with native fauna/flora).  +
• Where the species dominates or outcompetes native species for resources and/or space.  +
• Where the species is a pathogen/parasite of native species or carrier of a pathogen/parasite which infects/parasitizes native species.  +
