Ecological consequences of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) cultivation in Europe
Abstract Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) was first introduced to Europe
from North America more than 150 years ago, was then planted on a large scale and is now …

Species diversity of forest floor biota in non‐native Douglas‐fir stands is similar to that of native stands
Cultivation of non‐native tree species is a promising option to adapt managed forests to
climate change. However, consequences of non‐native tree species on flora, fauna, and …

Evolutionary ecology of the bark beetles Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus
Ips typographus (L.) and Pityogenes chalcographus (L.)(Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are two

Forest management and regional tree composition drive the host preference of saproxylic beetle communities
Among saproxylic beetles, many early colonizers prefer particular host species. Ranking of
preferred hosts of local saproxylic beetle communities is critical for effective dead‐wood …

Global guidelines for the sustainable use of non-native trees to prevent tree invasions and mitigate their negative impacts
Sustainably managed non-native trees deliver economic and societal benefits with limited
risk of spread to adjoining areas. However, some plantations have launched invasions that …

Beetle diversity in dead wood is lower in non‐native than native tree species, especially those more distantly related to native species
Non‐native tree species are widely used in forest plantations. This may have negative
consequences for biodiversity. Hitherto, most studies have compared species diversity …
