Climate change affects ecological processes and interactions, including parasitism.
Because parasites are natural components of ecological systems, as well as agents of …

Species distributions are changing at an unprecedented rate owing to human activity. We
examine how two key processes of redistribution–biological invasion and disease …

Tropical marine ecosystems are biologically diverse and economically invaluable. However,
they are severely threatened from impacts associated with climate change coupled with …

Worldwide, marine and coastal ecosystems are heavily invaded by introduced species and
the potential role of parasites in the success and impact of marine invasions has been …

There is considerable current interest in the role that parasites can play in biological
invasions. This review looks at the fate of parasites during a biological invasion and at their …

Information on parasites and disease in marine ecosystems lags behind terrestrial systems,
increasing the challenge of predicting responses of marine host–parasite systems to climate …

An increasing threat to local, native freshwater mussels (Unionida)—an ecologically
important but globally alarmingly declining group—is the invasion by exotic bivalves. The …

Abstract Invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish Pterois volitans/miles have become well-established
in many western Atlantic marine habitats and regions. However, high densities and low …

Despite that aquatic parasite diversity and abundance likely surpasses that of terrestrial
parasites, our understanding of aquatic parasites lags far behind our knowledge of terrestrial …

Successful invasions are largely explained by some combination of enemy release, where
the invader escapes its natural enemies from its native range, and low biotic resistance …
