A good understanding of the mechanisms and magnitude of the impact of invasive alien
species on ecosystem services and biodiversity is a prerequisite for the efficient prioritisation …

Arthropod generalist predators (AGP) are widespread and abundant in both aquatic and
terrestrial ecosystems. They feed upon herbivores, detritivores, and predators, and also on …

Biological invasions are a significant driver of human-induced global change and many
ecosystems sustain sympatric invaders. Interactions occurring among these invaders have …

Approximately 1,000 volunteers assessed the presence of invasive (Carcinus maenas and
Hemigrapsus sanguineus) and native crabs within the intertidal zone of seven coastal states …

Predation is a dominant structuring force in ecological communities. In aquatic
environments, predation on bivalves has long been an important focal interaction for …

Carcinus maenas (the “shore crab” or “European green crab”) is a very proficient invader
(considered to be one of the world's 100 worst invaders by the IUCN) due to its phenotypic …

With accelerating rates of invasion being documented in many ecosystems, communities of
interacting invasive species are becoming increasingly common. Opposing theories predict …

From the depths of the oceans to the shallow estuaries and wetlands of our coasts,
organisms of the marine environment are teeming with unique adaptations to cope with a …

We analyzed 69 publications on the impacts of introduced seaweeds. The predominant
impacts were changed competitive relationships in the recipient habitat, indicated by high …

Aim Terrestrial invertebrates comprise a large proportion of alien species world‐wide, yet a
quantitative global synthesis of their effects on native species and ecosystems has not been …
