Passive acoustic monitoring has become an established method in biodiversity research, but its application to invasive species monitoring has been less systematically explored. Here, we combine a systematic literature review with a field-based case study to evaluate the potential of passive acoustic monitoring for invasive animal detection. We identified 26 studies on acoustic monitoring of invasive animals, mainly addressing amphibians (11 studies), birds and fish (five each) with most studies from the USA and Australia. The use of acoustic monitoring of invasive species has increased during the past decade, with recent studies applying automated detection, machine learning, and large-scale monitoring frameworks. As a case study, we further tested the feasibility of low-cost acoustic monitoring of the invasive American bullfrog (\n                    <jats:italic>Lithobates catesbeianus<\/jats:italic>\n                    or\n                    <jats:italic>Aquarana catesbeiana<\/jats:italic>\n                    ) in southwestern Germany, combined with automated identification using BirdNET. We successfully confirmed bullfrog presence in five of the eleven monitored lakes, including sites close to protected nature reserves. Our results highlight the growing potential of passive acoustic monitoring of invasive species under field conditions. In combination with automated species detection, manual validation, and emerging real-time monitoring devices, passive acoustic monitoring becomes an increasingly powerful tool for early intervention and scalable management of biological invasions.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10661-026-15873-2","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,29]],"date-time":"2026-08-29T07:13:43Z","timestamp":1787987623000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Passive acoustic monitoring as a tool for early detection of invasive animal species: a systematic review and a case study"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"198","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-3339-3430","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Becker","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-4412-7283","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marit Kinga","family":"Kasten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-0236-7083","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Torben","family":"Weber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7788-1940","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ingo","family":"Grass","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4044-9956","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Thomas","family":"Hiller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"15873_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"679","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4020-6029-8_38","volume-title":"Biological invaders in inland waters: Profiles, distribution, and threats","author":"MJ Adams","year":"2007","unstructured":"Adams, M.
