Introduced and Invasive Species [PDF]
[Extract] Many domesticated animal and plant species have been introduced to novel territories beyond their natural geographic boundaries with the rapid increase in global trade. Other species have been taken along unintentionally as stowaways in or attached to goods such as domestic animals, plants, timber, or soil.

DNA metabarcoding reveals introduced species predominate in the diet of a threatened endemic omnivore, Telfair's skink (Leiolopisma telfairii). [PDF]
Introduced species can exert disproportionately negative effects on island ecosystems, but their potential role as food for native consumers is poorly studied.

Variation in life-history traits between a newly established and long-established population of non-native pumpkinseed, Lepomis gibbosus (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Centrarchidae) [PDF]
Background. The life-history traits of non-native species are believed to change in a predictable manner in relation to time since introduction, with populations in the early stages of establishment predicted to invest more energy into reproduction than ...

Introducing the Global Register of Introduced and Invasive Species [PDF]
AbstractHarmonised, representative data on the state of biological invasions remain inadequate at country and global scales, particularly for taxa that affect biodiversity and ecosystems. Information is not readily available in a form suitable for policy and reporting.

On the pattern of discovery of introduced species [PDF]
Introductions of nonindigenous species can have significant effects. It is commonly claimed that the rate of species introductions to the United States has increased over time. This claim is based in part on the increasing rate of discoveries of introduced species. This discovery rate is influenced by factors other than the introduction rate.

Testing strength of biotic resistance against an introduced fish: Inter-specific competition or predation through facultative piscivory? [PDF]
Biotic resistance is the process where aspects of the receiving environment inhibit the establishment and invasion of an introduced species. Resistance against an introduced fish can be through strong competition and/or predation from resident fishes ...
