Abstract
Prioritizing potential invasive alien species, introduction pathways, likely places susceptible to biological invasions is collectively critical for developing the targeting of management strategies at pre-border, border, and post-border. A framework for prioritizing the invasion management that considered all these elements in combination is lacking, particularly in the context of potential co-invasion scenarios of multi-species. Here, for the first time, we have constructed a coupling framework of biological invasions to evaluate and prioritize multiple invasion risks of 35 invasive alien mealybugs (IAMs) that posed a significant threat to the agri-horticultural crops in China. We found that the imported tropical fruits from free trade areas of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to entry ports of southern China was the primary introduction pathway for IAMs, vectored on various fruit commodities. There was also a high probability for co-introductions of potential multi-IAMs with a single imported tropical fruit. The potential distribution of such IAMs with dissimilar net relatedness were mainly located in southern China. These distributions, however, are likely to expand to the higher latitudes of northern China under future climate and land use/land cover changes. Temperature and anthropogenic factors were both independently and collectively determining factors for the diversity and distribution patterns of imported IAMs under near current climate conditions. Our findings highlight that these multiple components of global change have and will continue to facilitate the introduction and establishment risks of IAMs in southern China, as well as the spread risk into northern China. Additionally, our findings, for the first time, demonstrated management prioritization across the continuous invasion stages of 35 IAMs in China, and provide additional insights on the development of targeting of their biosecurity and management decisions.

Description of the data and file structure
The occurrence data of invasive alien mealybugs were obtained from our field surveys and public databases. The interception data were obtained from Chinese National Pest Quarantine Information System, including interceptions of invasive alien mealybugs from specific source country or region, as well as at specific entry port.
Files and variables
File: Detailed_explanation_and_standard_for_abbreviation_of_source_countries_or_regions.docx
Description: Detailed explanation for abbreviation of source countries or regions, and entry ports. Note: Abbreviations for countries follow the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 standard, and abbreviations for regions including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan are HKC, MOC and TWC respectively. Entry ports are abbreviated using the two letters of their official names, such as Guangxi (GX) and Guangdong (GD).
File: List_of_invasive_alien_mealybugs_in_China.xls
Description: The list of IAMs that have been intercepted in the entry ports of China or established in China.
Variables
- Species: The scientific name of the invasive alien mealybugs.
- Establishment (yes/no): The establishment status of the invasive alien mealybugs in China. “Yes” indicates that the specific invasive alien mealybug has established in China, while “No” indicates that the specific invasive alien mealybug has not established in China.
- Interceptions, Chinese National Pest Quarantine Information System (CNPQIS): The interceptions of the invasive alien mealybugs in China from Chinese National Pest Quarantine Information System. “-“ indicates that the specific invasive alien mealybug has not been intercepted in the entry ports of China.
- Center for Agriculture and Bioscience International (CABI): Whether the compilation of the invasive alien mealybugs lists in China is sourced from the Center for Agriculture and Bioscience International (CABI)? “Yes”indicates that the specific invasive alien mealybug has been recorded in CABI database, while “No” indicates that the specific invasive alien mealybug has not been recorded in CABI database.
- Published article: The publushed references of the invasive alien mealybugs lists in China. ”-“ indicates that the list of invasive alien mealybugs in China was not obtained from specific published article.
File: Interceptions_data_from_Chinese_National_Pest_Quarantine_Information_System.xls
Description: This file includes data on the interceptions of invasive alien mealybugs from source countries or regions and at entry ports from Chinese National Pest Quarantine Information System.
Variables

File: Invasive_alien_mealybugs_occurrences_our_survey_data.xls
Description: This file contains occurrence records of invasive alien mealybugs, including geographic coordinates and species information. From 2021 to 2023, we conducted a survey in China on the occurrence of invasive mealybugs on different host plants across various regions, recording the latitude and longitude data, as well as the species of mealybugs observed.
Variables
- species: The scientific name of the invasive alien mealybug species.
- longitude: The geographic longitude where the species was recorded (in decimal degrees).
- latitude: The geographic latitude where the species was recorded (in decimal degrees).
Code/software
The codes of method included python_codes that selected to analyse introduction network of invasive alien mealybugs in China, and the R_package codes and the input occurrences data that selected to estimate diversity patterns of invasive alien mealybugs and their underlying drivers.
