The abundance and density of three common sycamore aphids increased under elevated CO2, although this was only statistically significant for Drepanosiphum platanoidis. The number of nymphs produced by individual D. platanoidis alates isolated in clip cages was not significantly affected, suggesting that population level response was not driven by ...

ABSTRACT Biological invasions on islands provide a natural framework to study how dispersal and connectivity influence evolutionary and ecological processes. The avian nest parasitic fly, Philornis downsi—first recorded in Darwin's finch nests in 1997—causes high mortality in endemic land birds, yet its inter‐island and sex‐specific patterns of ...
