Answer:

The five introduced species, which has presented a serious threat to their new communities are zebra mussel, brown tree snake, the cane toad, kudzu, and the lamprey.  

Due to the introduction of brown tree snakes, approximately 12 species of birds and 6 species of lizards have got extinct. The zebra mussels introduction has disrupted the freshwater ecosystems and has clogged the water intake structures.  

Due to the introduction of kudzu, the whole region of the southern United States has become dominated by the plant. The introduction of cane toads has killed an ample amount of species without being getting killed themselves as they are poisonous and lacks predators. The introduction of lampreys has resulted in the decline of diversity as they lack predators and kill other species briskly.
