    Influences on the transport and establishment of exotic bird species: an analysis of the parrots (Psittaciformes) of the world (2004)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing
    Global change biology 10 (2004), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1365-2486
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Biology , Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering , Geography
    Notes: Most studies of exotic species invasions only consider the factors that affect the establishment of populations following release, yet this is only one step on the invasion pathway. Different factors are likely to influence which species are transported and released. Here, we examine the influence of species traits on the successful transition of species through several stages in the introduction pathway (transport, release, and establishment), using parrots (Aves: Psittaciformes) as a model system. We use a species-level supertree of parrots to test for phylogenetic auto-correlation in the introduction process. Our analyses find that different sets of variables are related to the probability that a species enters each stage on the invasion pathway. The availability of individuals for transport and release seems to be most important for passage through these stages, but has no obvious effect on establishment following release. Rather, establishment success is higher for sedentary species, and species with broad diets.

    Patterns of success in passeriform bird introductions on Saint Helena (1995)
    Springer
    Oecologia 103 (1995), S. 337-342 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-1939
    Keywords: Saint Helena ; Introductions ; Competition ; Birds ; Community
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Ecologists have long attempted to predict the success of species that are introduced into foreign environments. Some have emphasized qualities intrinsic to the species themselves, whereas others have argued that extrinsic forces such as competition may be more important. We test some of the predictions made by both the extrinsic and intrinsic hypotheses using passeriform birds introduced onto the island of Saint Helena. We found direct evidence that extrinsic forces are more important predictors of successful invasion. Species introduced when fewer other species were present were more likely to be successful. In a direct test of the alternative hypothesis that intrinsic forces play a more prominent role in success or failure, we found a tendency for species which successfully established on Saint Helena to be also successful when introduced elsewhere. However, the vast majority of species unsuccessful at establishing on Saint Helena had probabilities of success outside Saint Helena of 50% or greater, making this result somewhat equivocal. Finally, we found no evidence to support the hypothesis that species that are successful early are those that are intrinsically superior invaders. These results are consistent with similar analyses of the introduced avian communities on Oahu, Tahiti, and Bermuda.

    Morphological dispersion of introduced Hawaiian finches: evidence for competition and a Narcissus effect (1992)
    Springer
    Evolutionary ecology 6 (1992), S. 45-55 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-8477
    Keywords: introduced finches ; community structure ; Oahu, Hawaii ; morphological analyses ; principal components ; Narcissus effect
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Morphological analyses were conducted on finch species introduced to Oahu, Hawaii. As many as 25 species of finches representing four families (Emberizidae, Fringillidae, Ploecidae, Estrildidae) have been introduced to Oahu. Of these, 15 species currently have established wild populations. When compared with pools of 25 and 23 species introduced to Oahu, the 15 surviving species are morphologically overdispersed. This result is consistent with the hypothesis that competition has influenced the outcome of these introductions. We also tested the hypothesis that surviving introduced finches in one habitat (sugarcane fields) were morphologically overdispersed. When the seven surviving finch species found in sugarcane were compared with the pools of 25 and 23 species, they too were morphologically overdispersed. However, when the seven sugarcane species were compared with a species pool consisting of only the surviving 15 species found across Oahu, they were not morphologically overdispersed. This result suggests that morphological analyses of community structure based only on comparisons of assemblages of surviving species may be biased by a Narcissus effect.

    Ecomorphological pattern in Bermuda birds: The influence of competition and implications for nature preserves (1994)
    Springer
    Evolutionary ecology 8 (1994), S. 53-60 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-8477
    Keywords: Bermuda ; community structure ; competition ; nature preserves ; ecomorphology ; passeriforms
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Previous ecomorphological studies of introduced land birds on oceanic islands have revealed several patterns consistent with the hypothesis that interspecific competition influenced the assembly process of that community. We extend one of these analyses to Bermuda, which differs from the previous islands in its size, latitude and isolation from the mainland. We tested for the presence of morphological overdispersion in surviving introduced passeriforms. Despite a possible predominance of random events in the assembly process due to Bermuda's small size and the presence of migrant species, the surviving passeriforms were morphologically overdispersed. The presence of this pattern supports the hypothesis that the assembly of the Bermuda passeriform community has been influenced by interspecific competition. This marks the third distinct community of island land birds in which this competitive pattern has been identified. This is particularly interesting because certain attributes of Bermuda and its avifauna make it more equivalent to communities in mainland refuges than avian assemblages on islands studied previously. This suggests that interspecific competition may have important effects on the structure of refuge communities.

    Does non‐native diversity mirror Earth's biodiversity? (2024)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-14
    Description: Aim: Human activities have introduced numerous non-native species (NNS) worldwide. Understanding and predicting large-scale NNS establishment patterns remain fundamental scientific challenges. Here, we evaluate if NNS composition represents a proportional subset of the total species pool available to invade (i.e. total global biodiversity), or, conversely, certain taxa are disproportionately pre-disposed to establish in non-native areas. Location: Global. Time period: Present day. Major taxa studied: Global diversity. Methods: We compiled one of the most comprehensive global databases of NNS (36,822 established species) to determine if NNS diversity is a representative proportional subset of global biodiversity. Results: Our study revealed that, while NNS diversity mirrors global biodiversity to a certain extent, due to significant deviance from the null model it is not always a representative proportional subset of global biodiversity. The strength of global biodiversity as a predictor depended on the taxonomic scale, with successive lower taxonomic levels less predictive than the one above it. Consequently, on average, 58%, 42% and 28% of variability in NNS numbers were explained by global biodiversity for phylum, class and family respectively. Moreover, global biodiversity was a similarly strong explanatory variable for NNS diversity among regions, but not habitats (i.e. terrestrial, freshwater and marine), where it better predicted NNS diversity for terrestrial than for freshwater and marine habitats. Freshwater and marine habitats were also greatly understudied relative to invasions in the terrestrial habitats. Over-represented NNS relative to global biodiversity tended to be those intentionally introduced and/or ‘hitchhikers’ associated with deliberate introductions. Finally, randomness is likely an important factor in the establishment success of NNS. Main conclusions: Besides global biodiversity, other important explanatory variables for large-scale patterns of NNS diversity likely include propagule and colonization pressures, environmental similarity between native and non-native regions, biased selection of intentionally introduced species and disparate research efforts of habitats and taxa.
