Studies of voles on Orkney, long-tailed field mice on the Hebrides and Shetland, and house mice on the Faroe archipelago show that the ...

Abstract Ever since Charles Darwin landed on the Galapagos Islands in September 1835, small islands have secured a special place in scientific history. In this lecture I try to show how the complex warfare of island invasion and island extinction observed by Darwin for plants and animals, also applies with equal force to the invasion and
