Climatic niche shifts in introduced species

Current Biology, 2021
Predictions of future biological invasions often rely on the assumption that introduced species establish only under climatic conditions similar to those in their native range. To date, 135 studies have tested this assumption of 'niche conservatism', yielding contradictory results. Here we revisit this literature, consider the evidence for niche shifts,

Introduced and Invasive Species

2020
[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.

Introduced species and their missing parasites

Nature, 2003
Damage caused by introduced species results from the high population densities and large body sizes that they attain in their new location. Escape from the effects of natural enemies is a frequent explanation given for the success of introduced species.

Introduced species as evolutionary traps

Ecology Letters, 2005
Abstract Invasive species can alter environments in such a way that normal behavioural decision‐making rules of native species are no longer adaptive. The evolutionary trap concept provides a useful framework for predicting and managing the impact of harmful invasive species.

Determining the effects of introduced species

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1987
People have moved species around the world for millenia, sometimes by accident, but often with considerable enthusiasm. English garden birds in New Zealand are merely quaint curiosities introduced by settlers wanting the familiar species of their former homes.

Introduced plants reduce species interactions

Biological Invasions, 2018
This study compares caterpillar communities (Lepidoptera and Hymenoptera sawflies) in agricultural hedgerows dominated by aggressive non-native plants (novel hedgerows) and hedgerows comprised largely of indigenous plants. It differs from controlled common garden studies because it examines the impact of evolutionarily novel plants that have replaced ...
