The example of an invasive species is:
**a species of beetle that arrives via an international cargo ship and proceeds to severely harm the local tree population.**
Invasive species are non-native organisms that, when introduced to a new environment, can cause significant harm to local ecosystems, economies, or human health. The beetle in this example fits this definition as it causes harm to local trees.
