Differential temporal beta‐diversity patterns of native and non‐native arthropod species in a fragmented native forest landscape [PDF]
Ecography, 2018 An important factor that hinders the management of non‐native species is a general lack of information regarding the biogeography of non‐natives, and, in particular, their rates of turnover.

Non-native species in floodplain secondary forests in Peninsular Malaysia. [PDF]
EnvironmentAsia, 2010 There is an increasing concern of alien species invading our tropical ecosystems because anthropogenic land use can create conditions in which non-native species thrive. This study is an assessment of bioinvasion using a quantitative survey of non-native

Non-Native Forest Tree Species in Europe: The Question of Seed Origin in Afforestation [PDF]
Forests, 2022 Non-native forest tree species have been introduced in Europe since the 16th century, but only in the second half of the 20th century the significance of the seed source origin for their economic use was recognized, resulting in the establishment of numerous provenance trials at a national, regional, European and International level, as those led by ...

Assessing the relative importance of human and spatial pressures on non-native plant establishment in urban forests using citizen science [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2021 Since 2007, more people in the world live in urban than in rural areas. The development of urban areas has encroached into natural forest ecosystems, consequently increasing the ecological importance of parks and fragmented forest remnants.

Native plant species richness in non-native Pinus contorta forest [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Ecology, 2016 Pinus contorta (lodgepole pine) is invasive in many southern hemisphere countries, having spread extensively from original plantings. It is widely controlled to limit its spread and negative impacts, and is generally assumed to have little value for native plant biodiversity. We surveyed vegetation in two stands of montane wilding P.

Ecological Impacts of Exotic Species on Native Seed Dispersal Systems: A Systematic Review
Plants, 2023 Exotic species are one of the main threats to biodiversity, leading to alterations in the structure and functioning of natural ecosystems. However, they can sometimes also provide ecological services, such as seed dispersal.
