Commonly used in the literature to refer to the “attractiveness”, “appeal”, or “beauty” of a species, charisma can be defined as a set of characteristics – and the perception thereof – that affect people’s attitudes and behaviors toward a species. The charisma of invasive alien species (IAS) is an important concept for invasion science, but it has not yet been properly addressed in the literature. We explored IAS charisma in terms of invasion dynamics and management, and provide a set of recommendations for further research. The charisma of IAS can influence all stages of the invasion process, and both charisma and its influence tend to vary over time and space. IAS charisma can affect management actions by influencing public support or contributing to social conflicts. Charisma can, and historically has affected species introductions, media portrayal, public perceptions, opposition to management, research effort, and public participation in research and management
