Grazing by non‐native ungulates negatively impacts vegetation important to a native species of concern

Ecosphere
Non‐native grazers compete with native species across the globe. We present a novel approach to study the composition of the herbaceous understory across three study areas within the Great‐Basin with different historic and contemporary grazing regimes ...

Is coexistence between non-native and native Erythrinidae species mediated by niche differentiation or environmental filtering? A case study in the upper Paraná River floodplain

Neotropical Ichthyology, 2017
The limiting similarity theory predicts that divergence in the functional traits of native and introduced species is an essential component in species establishment, as introduced species must occupy a niche that is unoccupied by resident species. On the

Testing multiple pathways for impacts of the non-native Black-headed Weaver Ploceus melanocephalus on native birds in Iberia in the early phase of invasion [PDF]

, 2014
Not all non-native species have strong negative impacts on native species. It is desirable to assess whether a non-native species will have a negative impact at an early stage in the invasion process, when management options such as eradication are still

Alien Invasion: Invasive Species (title provided or enhanced by cataloger) [PDF]

Using the example of the Eastern United States continental shelf, this lesson helps students understand how alien species enter non-native habitats, what problems are associated with these species, and what can be done about them.

Four rural cemeteries in central western NSW: Islands of Australiana in a European sea? [PDF]

, 2013
Vascular plants present in groundstoreys of variously–managed areas in four cemeteries in central western NSW – two on the Central Western Slopes (Garra and Toogong) and two on the Central Tablelands (Lyndhurst and Carcoar) – were recorded over periods ...

Five-Year Response of Spontaneous Vegetation to Removal of Invasive Amur Bush Honeysuckle Along an Urban Creek [PDF]

, 2019
Non-native invasive species have major impacts on landscapes worldwide, but their effects in urban areas are not well documented. We quantified the response of naturally regenerating vegetation along an urban creek to removal of the invasive shrub ...

Non-Native Species: a biodiversity increase

, 2018
The European seas are known to be the recipient of several hundreds of Non-Native Species (NNS) due two main origins: shipping and aquaculture. More than 160 NNS had been recorded along the Normandy coast, which remains low in comparison with the number of marine invertebrate species known in the English Channel (> 3,000).
