Species can colonize oceanic islands by both natural and human‐assisted dispersal and human‐caused species introductions have had catastrophic effects on ecosystems around the world. The Spiny‐tailed Iguanas inhabiting Clarion Island were previously considered introduced. Molecular data and analyses support iguanas' arrival on Clarion Island by natural

Examining the structure of plant–lemur interactions in the face of imperfect knowledge
Abstract Biotic interactions, such as plant–animal seed dispersal mutualisms, are essential for ecosystem function. Such interactions are threatened by the possible extinction of the animal partners. Using a data set that includes plant–lemur interactions across Madagascar, we studied the current state of knowledge of these interactions and their ...

Abstract Managing invasive species is crucial to mitigate their negative impacts on ecosystems, yet conflicts may arise when their social benefits are disregarded. Human pressure on the endemic‐rich forests of São Tomé has been high since the island was discovered by the Portuguese in the 15th century, and numerous species have been introduced.

The specialised buzz pollination syndrome poses a partial barrier to plant invasions
We found that plants that exhibit traits consistent with the buzz‐pollination syndrome are underrepresented as invasive species across the globe. Our result suggests that the specialist buzz‐pollination syndrome poses a partial barrier to plant invasions. Our review also highlighted six alternative insect behaviours that can enable invasive plants with

Abstract Conservation translocations are an important conservation tool commonly employed to augment declining or reestablish extirpated populations. One goal of augmentation is to increase genetic diversity and reduce the risk of inbreeding depression (i.e., genetic rescue).
