Rates of species introduction to a remote oceanic island [PDF]
The introduction of species to areas beyond the limits of their natural distributions has a major homogenizing influence, making previously distinct biotas more similar.

Morphological Variety in Distoseptispora and Introduction of Six Novel Species
Distoseptispora is one of the sporidesmium-like taxa with great variation in asexual morphology and delineation of species. Phylogenetic analyses of four gene regions LSU, ITS, TEF1α, and RPB2 revealed the placement of several sporidesmium-like species ...

Floristic homogenization as a result of the introduction of exotic species in China
The introduction of exotic plants can both increase (homogenize) and decrease (differentiate) floristic similarity between areas. We have a poor understanding of the degree to which plant species introductions tend to homogenize or differentiate floras ...

Climatic criteria for successful introduction of Quercus species identified by use of Arboretum data
Climate change is projected to have a major influence on forest tree populations and composition. Translocation of species outside their historic range has been suggested to maintain healthy forests and tree species.

Ecological correlates of species’ roles in highly invaded seed dispersal networks
Significance Species invasions and introductions are reshaping ecosystems around the world. In such novel ecological scenarios, it remains unclear whether crucial ecosystem functions played by lost native species may be partially or fully replaced by ...

Critical review on the re-introduction of flagship species [PDF]
The reintroduction of salmon, wolves and bears has been in the news, but do they represent a true restoration of biodiversity? The authors discuss the advantages and limits to such projects, using as an example the re-introduction of salmon in the Rhine ...
