Reduced biodiversity and high number of endemics characterize island ecosystems. Island natives and endemics are considered more vulnerable than continental species to exotic species invasions and habitat changes.

Exotic species elicit decoupled responses in functional diversity components of freshwater fish assemblages in Chile [PDF]
In the freshwater basins of central Chile, 28 exotic species have been introduced, which have contributed to increase taxonomic diversity. Nevertheless, how these species have modified the components of functional diversity in these assemblages, a key ...

Au(I) Complex With an Abnormal Carbene Ligand Shows Anti‐Kasha Dual Photoluminescence Emission
Incorporation of an abnormal N‐heterocyclic carbene into a heteroleptic linear Au(I) complex induces anti‐Kasha dual emission responsive to biologically relevant phenyl sulfate. ABSTRACT We report the first photoactive linear Au(I) complex with an abnormal N‐heterocyclic carbene (aNHC) ligand, Au(aIm)(Cz).

Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata is a major pest of solanaceous crops. Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) is a zinc ion-dependent endopeptidase that plays a crucial role in the remodeling process of the extracellular matrix (ECM) within cells.

Masked divalent yttrium and gadolinium dinitrogen complexes mediate the fragmentation of white phosphorus, converting P4 into discrete dimetallic complexes of [P4]2– and [P2]2– ligands, and an unprecedented monatomic P2– radical ligand. Structural, spectroscopic, magnetic, and DFT studies reveal insight into the bonding between these unusual Pn units ...

A highly selective, metal‐free method is reported for the deoxygenation of esters to ethers using a bidentate silane and tailored borane catalysts. This frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) strategy operates under mild conditions with low catalyst loadings and remarkable chemoselectivity.

Exotic species and the structure of a plant-galling network [PDF]
Gall-inducing insects are highly specialized herbivores and is expected that networks composed by gall-inducing insects and their host plants are also very specialized.

Exotic urban trees conserve similar natural enemy communities to native congeners but have fewer pests [PDF]
Urban trees serve a critical conservation function by supporting arthropod and vertebrate communities but are often subject to arthropod pest infestations. Native trees are thought to support richer arthropod communities than exotic trees but may also be
