Detritus type alters the outcome of interspecific competition between Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus (Diptera : Culicidae) [PDF]
, 2008 Many studies of interspecific competition between Aedes albopictus (Skuse) and Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) larvae show that Ae. albopictus are superior resource competitors to Ae. aegypti.

PLoS ONE, 2014 Territorial aggression influences fitness and, in monogamous pairs, the behavior of both individuals could impact reproductive success. Moreover, territorial aggression is particularly important in the context of interspecific competition.

Nestedness in mutualistic networks [PDF]
, 2013 James et al. (2012) presented simulations that apparently falsify the analytical result by Bastolla et al. (2009), who showed that nested mutualistic interactions decrease interspecific competition and increase biodiversity in model ecosystems.

INTERSPECIFIC COMPETITION, ISLAND BIOGEOGRAPHY AND NULL HYPOTHESES [PDF]
Evolution, 1980 We conducted a field study of some of Darwin's Finches (Geospiza species) in order to assess the relative importance of interspecific competition and habitat features in determining the observed biogeographic, ecological and morphological characteristics of these species (Abbott et al., 1977). Strong et al. (1979) have criticized one of our methods and

A Local Replacement of \u3ci\u3eBombus Ternarius\u3c/i\u3e by \u3ci\u3eBombus Terricola\u3c/i\u3e in Northern Wisconsin (Hymenoptera: Apidae) [PDF]
, 2017 During the last few years, the bumblebee Bombus ternarius Say has markedly decreased in numbers in Vilas County in northern Wisconsin while Bombus terricola Kirby has increased. The great ecological similarity of these species suggests that interspecific

Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Alien plants experience novel abiotic conditions and interactions with native communities in the introduced area. Intra‐ and interspecific selection on functional traits in the new environment may lead to increased population growth with time since ...

Ecological Opportunity In Adaptive Radiation Of Galapagos Endemic Land Snails [PDF]
, 2009 The classic evolutionary hypothesis of ecological opportunity proposes that both heterogeneity of resources and freedom from enemies promote phenotypic divergence as a response to increased niche availability.
