Distribuição de espécies exóticas invasoras em diferentes cenários no território brasileiro

Research, Society and Development, 2022
As invasões biológicas contribuem de forma significativa para a perda de biodiversidade global. Apesar do crescente número de trabalhos sobre a temática, ainda são necessários estudos que abordem a distribuição dessas espécies.

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

Wild herbivores enhance resistance to invasion by exotic cacti in an African savanna

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 1, Page 33-44, January 2023., 2023
Our experimental and observational findings that wild herbivores confer resistance to invasion by exotic cacti add to evidence that conserving and restoring native herbivore assemblages (particularly megaherbivores) can increase community resistance to plant invasions. Photo credit: Gustavo Lozada (same for potential cover image). Abstract Whether wild

Effects of time since invasion and control actions on a coastal ecosystem invaded by non‐native pine trees

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 3, Issue 1, January–March 2022., 2022
Pine invasion reduced native species abundance, plant cover, richness and diversity, with an increase over time since invasion. Species diversity and richness were lower in the managed area than in the area that had not been invaded. Restoration activities are therefore required to increase native species diversity.

Gaps in DNA sequence libraries for Macaronesian marine macroinvertebrates imply decades till completion and robust monitoring

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 10, Page 2003-2015, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim DNA metabarcoding has great potential to improve biomonitoring in island's marine ecosystems, which are highly vulnerable to global change and non‐indigenous species (NIS) introductions. However, the depth and accuracy of the taxonomic identifications are mainly dependent on reference libraries containing representative and reliable ...

Plant pirates of the Caribbean: is Cuba sheltered by its revolutionary economy?

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 208-215, May 2021., 2021
Cuba – a large, habitat‐rich island that has cultivated economic self‐sufficiency – is tethered between contrasting predictions of non‐native species diversity. A high capacity for colonization is prognosticated by its biogeography; muted introduction of organisms is predicted by its low dependence on imports and tourism, as economic openness is ...

ESPÉCIES EXÓTICAS INVASORAS NA ARBORIZAÇÃO DE VIAS PÚBLICAS DE MARINGÁ-PR

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Arborização Urbana, 2019
Apesar da temática das espécies exóticas invasoras ser recente no meio científico, e praticamente desconhecida pela sociedade, a invasão biológica desencadeada por elas é a segunda maior causa de perda da biodiversidade no planeta. Quando introduzidas em

Influência de espécies exóticas invasoras na regeneração natural de um fragmento florestal urbano

Scientia Plena, 2019
As espécies exóticas invasoras ameaçam a manutenção da biodiversidade, pois podem ocupar o espaço das nativas e dominar grandes extensões. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a regeneração secundária no Parque Estadual Alberto Löfgren, São Paulo – SP, e ...
