Urbanization Drives Habitat Suitability of the Invasive Cuban Knight Anole (<i>Anolis equestris</i>) in Florida, USA. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study evaluates the climatic and anthropogenic factors driving the habitat suitability of the invasive Cuban knight anole (Anolis equestris) in Florida and its potential impact on three threatened invertebrate species through habitat overlap. Using species distribution models (SDMs), we found that urbanization strongly influences the anole's ...

Preliminary insights of the genetic diversity and invasion pathways of Cedrela odorata in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Cedrela odorata is the second most invasive tree species in the Galapagos Islands. Using nine microsatellite markers, we found that the genetic diversity of C. odorata in Galapagos is lower (He = 0.55) than in mainland Ecuador (He = 0.81). Our preliminary findings suggest multiple introduction events and that the origin of C. odorata in Galapagos could

Assessing the mechanisms and impacts of shrub invasion in forests: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 11, Page 2314-2326, November 2023., 2023
Taken together, these results suggest that restoration efforts should focus on (i) increasing the presence of strong native competitors or functionally diverse native communities, (ii) decreasing sources of invasive shrub propagules while keeping the canopies closed when invasion occurs via high propagule pressure, (iii) avoiding management techniques ...

Insights from experiences comanaging woody invasive alien plants in Argentina

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 4, Issue 4, October–December 2023., 2023
The complexities of invasive alien species (IAS) management call for a close collaboration among stakeholders to comanage effective solutions. Based on a SWOT analysis, we identified personal motivations as the main force that helps to overcome barriers to to IAS comanagement in Argentina. We recommend the development of spaces to share experiences and

Implications for biological invasion of non‐native plants for sale in the world's largest online market

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Internet trade is increasingly recognized as a dispersal pathway of non‐native plant species that is difficult to monitor. We sought to identify non‐native flora present in the Chinese online market, the largest e‐commerce market globally, and to decipher the effect of existing trade regulations, among other variables, on e‐trading patterns ...

Applying fault tree analysis to biological invasions identifies optimal targets for effective biosecurity

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 10, Page 2553-2566, October 2022., 2022
While prevention has been long recognised as the most cost‐effective action against biological invasions, here we were able to quantify the reduction in invasion risk under a range of management scenarios. Optimising all management elements included in the FT reduced the overall probability of invasion by three orders of magnitude.
