The Nonindigenous Aquatic Species (NAS) site serves as a central repository for introduced aquatic species distribution infromation in the United States. Users can query the NAS for data, species lists, and fact sheets about nonindigenous aquatic vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants; and sign up to receive nondigenous aquatic species alerts; report nonindigenous aquatic species sightings through the reporting system; and find publications and literature in the reference database. Also see summary graphs of introductions by state and taxonomic group.

The NAS data can be queried in a variety of ways. Here we present a text query that will return a list of species.

The NBII Program is administered by the Biological Informatics Program of the U.S. Geological Survey
