Evaluating past and future contributions of conservation programs to species recovery
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Impact evaluation of conservation actions is a crucial step in global efforts to curb the biodiversity crisis. Through robust impact evaluation, practitioners can assess the effectiveness of conservation strategies and optimize the use of limited resources.

Environmental DNA for invasive rat surveillance and biosecurity on islands
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.We collected aquatic eDNA samples from beach and lake sites on three atoll islands with different invasion statuses before and after a rat eradication operation. Two dozen eDNA samples can confirm with ≥95% probability the presence of invasive rats prior to any management intervention. However, following the eradication operation, neither targeted eDNA

Realizing and assessing social successes in invasive species management
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Each year untold numbers of land managers and volunteers work individually and collectively to manage invasive plant, animal, and insect species. Whether such efforts are deemed successful depends on ecological and economic outcomes, with limited consideration of the social processes, costs, and benefits.

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ant‐flower interactions are prevalent in many ecosystems, yet their ecological significance remains poorly understood, particularly in isolated systems like the Galapagos Islands, where unique biotic assemblages create distinct interaction networks.

Detecting a Small Hive Beetle's eDNA in Honeybee Colonies
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Early detection is important to limit the spread of invasive species. Molecular diagnosis using eDNA can be useful in this regard, but the sensitivity is often unknown. This holds true for small hive beetles (SHB), which are parasites of honeybee (HB) colonies and continue to spread globally.

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 4, April 2025.ABSTRACT The pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis) is a key species for recreational and commercial fisheries in Argentina and holds significant aquaculture potential. It has been introduced to various countries worldwide, including Japan, where intensive aquaculture has developed.
