        de Bruyn, P.J.N.; Tosh, C.A.; Terauds, A. (Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2013)
        Killer whales, Orcinus orca, are top predators occupying key ecological roles in a variety of ecosystems and are one of the most widely distributed mammals on the planet. In consequence, there has been significant interest ...

      • Latitudinal and longitudinal barriers in global biogeography 

        Procheş, Ş. (The Royal Society, 2006)
        Due to changes in climate and continental arrangement, plant and animal assemblages faced different dispersal barriers at different moments in Earth’s history. It is generally accepted that groups which diversified ...
      • Life on the edge: rare and restricted episodes of a pan-tropical mutualism adapting to drier climates 

        McLeish, M.; Guo, D.; van Noort, S.; Midgley, G. (New Phytologist Trust, 2011)
        • The fig tree–fig wasp obligate pollination mutualism has strong ancestral affinities with tropical communities, but is present in much drier contemporary biomes, especially at higher latitudes at the edge of their range. ...

        The most prominent factors inducing landscape change in the rural regions of south west Europe are depopulation and the associated socio-ecological modifications. The aimof this work was to assess the future implications ...

      • Long after the event, or four things we (should) know about bird invasions 

        Blackburn, T.M.; Dyer, E.; Su, S.; Cassey, P. (Springer, 2015)
        The most significant single event in the study of alien bird invasions occurred in 1981, with the publication of John L. Long’s seminal book ‘‘ Introduced birds of the world’’ (full title: Introduced birds of the world: ...
      • Macroecology of global bryophyte invasions at different invasion stages 

        Essl, F.; Dullinger, S.; Moser, D.; Steinbauer, K.; Mang, T. (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2015)
        In this study we provide the first comprehensive assessment of the environmental and anthropogenic factors driving bryophyte invasions worldwide. We compiled data of alien bryophyte distributions from 82 regions on five ...
      • Managing conflict-generating invasive species in South Africa: Challenges and trade-offs 

        Zengeya, T.; Ivey, P.; Woodford, D.J.; Weyl, O.L.F.; Novoa, A.; Shackleton, R.; Richardson, D.M.; van Wilgen, B.W. (AOSIS, 2017)
        Background: This paper reviewed the benefits and negative impacts of alien species that are currently listed in the Alien and Invasive Species Regulations of the National Environmental Management: Biodiversity Act (Act no ...
      • Measuring size and composition of species pools: a comparison of dark diversity estimates 

        de Bello, F.; Fibich, P.; Zeleny, D.; Kopecky, M.; Mudrak, O.; Chytry, M.; Pysek, P.; Wild, J.; Michalcova, D.; Sadlo, J.; Smilauer, P.; Leps, J.; Partel, M. (John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
        Ecological theory and biodiversity conservation have traditionally relied on the number of species recorded at a site, but it is agreed that site richness represents only a portion of the species that can inhabit particular ...
      • Mind the gaps: investigating the cause of the current range disjunction in the Cape Platanna, Xenopus gilli (Anura: Pipidae) 

        Fogell, D.J.; Tolley, K.A.; Measey, G.J. (Open Access, 2013-09-26)
        Low-lying areas of the Cape at Africa’s south-westernmost tip have undergone dramatic marine-remodelling, with regular changes in sea-level following glacial cycles. Species for which marine barriers are impenetrable ...
      • Modelling the effect of two biocontrol agents on the invasive alien tree Acacia cyclops - Flowering, seed production and agent survival 

        Krug, R.M.; Richardson, D.M. (Elsevier, 2014-04-24)
        Invasive alien plants play an important role in our changing world and have a considerable negative impact on ecosystems in many parts of the world. One effective control strategy involves the use of biocontrol agents which ...

      • Native-range habitats of invasive plants: are they similar to invaded-range habitats and do they differ according to the geographical direction of invasion? 

        Hejda, M.; Chytry, M.; Pergl, J.; Pyšek, P. (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2015)
        Aim Habitat types are involved in shaping biological traits of their resident native species and thus they determine, to a large extent, in which habitats particular species will succeed if invading outside their native ...
