Important biological and ecological aspects of Strepsicrates macropetana Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Protection at Massey University [PDF]
, 2000 Strepsicrates macropetana Meyrick (Tortricidae) has a significant impact on eucalypt form and growth, therefore is an important insect pest of young plantations in New Zealand.

Visualizing Co-Phylogenetic Reconciliations [PDF]
, 2017 We introduce a hybrid metaphor for the visualization of the reconciliations of co-phylogenetic trees, that are mappings among the nodes of two trees. The typical application is the visualization of the co-evolution of hosts and parasites in biology.

Eucalypts face increasing climate stress [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2013 AbstractGlobal climate change is already impacting species and ecosystems across the planet. Trees, although long‐lived, are sensitive to changes in climate, including climate extremes. Shifts in tree species' distributions will influence biodiversity and ecosystem function at scales ranging from local to landscape; dry and hot regions will be ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

New communities on eucalypts grown outside Australia
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 The expansion of eucalypt forestry worldwide has been accompanied by accidental and deliberate introductions of Australian insects associated with eucalypts. Local insect species have also colonised introduced eucalypts in many regions.

The spread of non‐native species
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.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.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
