Peer-reviewed papers from the Fifth International Conference on Marine Bioinvasions, held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, May 21-24, 2007. The papers contained in this volume are a peer-reviewed selection from among those presented at the meeting and represent a range of topics, while also providing state-of-the-art insight into our current understanding of the ecological, economic, and evolutionary impacts of marine bioinvaders.
