Native habitat affinities predict fish invasions with post‐invasion habitat shifts
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Initial invasion success is gated by native pre‐adaptations, but post‐invasion establishment is characterized by habitat shifts.

This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.
