Newly arrived species may be highly competitive with or otherwise adversely affect native species and communities) | faunaforringelse | |
| bastardisation of flora (One of the possible consequences of the introduction of plant species in an area where they are not indigenous) | floraforringelse | |

| bathing freshwater (Freshwater in which bathing is explicitly authorised or in which bathing is not prohibited and is traditionally practised by a large number of bathers. Water in such areas must meet specified quality standards relating to chemical, microbiological and physical parameters) | ferskvann til bading | |
| bathing seawater (Sea waters in which bathing is explicitly authorised or in which bathing is not prohibited and is traditionally practised by a large number of bathers. Water in such areas must meet specified quality standards relating to chemical, microbiological and physical parameters) | sjøvann til bading | |
| bathing water (All waters, inland or coastal, except those intended for therapeutic purposes or used in swimming pools, an area either in which bathing is explicitly authorised or in which bathing is not prohibited and is traditionally practised by a large number of bathers.

| beetle (Any insect of the order Coleoptera, having biting mouthparts and forewings modified to form shell-like protective elytra) | bille | |
