Reconstructing Bioinvasion Dynamics Through Micropaleontologic Analysis Highlights the Role of Temperature Change as a Driver of Alien Foraminifera Invasion

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Invasive alien species threaten biodiversity and ecosystem structure and functioning, but incomplete assessments of their origins and temporal trends impair our ability to understand the relative importance of different factors driving invasion success ...

A novel marine bioinvasion vector: Ichthyochory, live passage through fish

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2017
Many species of Indo‐Pacific holobenthic foraminifera have been introduced and successfully established sustainable populations in the Mediterranean Sea over the past few decades.

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Golden but not precious: first quali-quantitative data on golden mussels bioinvasion in the Amazon [PDF]

Acta Limnologica Brasiliensia
The invasive bivalve mollusk Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857), commonly known as the “golden mussel”, was recently recorded in the Amazon region, in August 2023 on the Tocantins River (State of Pará). Native to Southeast Asia, L.

Reproductive plasticity and environmental tolerance of invasive African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in a tropical Brazilian river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive alien species (IAS) pose a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly when endowed with high ecological and reproductive plasticity. The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is one such species, widely recognized for its ability to colonize and establish in diverse tropical ecosystems.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Evidence of Pervasive Legacy of Land Use Change on Dung Beetles in Central European Grazed Grasslands

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study modeled the effects of livestock farming and land use change on dung beetle species richness and abundance in Austria and the Czech Republic. Using historic land cover data from the 19th century, we found evidence for extinction debt, showing that past landscapes better explained current dung beetle populations than recent land use.

Managing the risk of marine bioinvasion via biofouling: trends in methods of assessment, policy, and legislation

Ocean and Coastal Research
Maritime shipping has been recognized as the main pathway of species transference throughout the world. Ballast water or fouling on vessels have become the main vectors of aquatic species transportation between coastal marine ecosystems, which can lead ...
