Island Syndrome in the Critically Endangered Lord Howe Island Cockroach <i>Panesthia lata</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe Lord Howe Island cockroach Panesthia lata was found to display significantly reduced intraspecific agonism, and to aggregate more readily with non‐kin, than its mainland sister species Panesthia cribrata. This represents the first evidence that an invertebrate species undergoes similar behavioural shifts as vertebrates following island colonisation.
