Gustatory responsiveness in Vespula germanica workers: exploring the interplay between sensory perception and task specialization
(Wiley, 2023-08-03)Workers’ task specialization and division of labor are critical features of social insects’ ecological success. It has been proposed that the division of labor relies on response threshold models: individuals varying their ... -
Invasions: the trail behind, the path ahead, and a test of a disturbing idea
(Wiley, 2012-01)We provide a brief overview of progress in our understanding of introduced plant species. Three main conclusions emerge from our review: (i) Many lines of research, including the search for traits that make species good ... -

(Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2014-07)El principal objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar los patrones a distintas escalas de la invasión reciente de la especie vegetal Hieracium pilosella, una maleza exótica común en pastizales templado-fríos. A partir de un ... -
Invasive Insects in Forest Plantations of Argentina: Ecological Patterns and Implications for Management
(Springer Nature, 2020-02)Since the dawn of modern agriculture, humans have selected a few several species from the immense diversity nature has to offer, resulting in the same species being cultivated in very different countries and regions. Crops ... -
Landscape variables influence over active restoration strategies of Nothofagus forests degraded by invasive Castor canadensis in Tierra del Fuego
(MDPI, 2021-07-06)North American beavers (Castor canadensis) are responsible for the major changes in the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago, altering riparian forests for the long-term. Passive restoration of the areas affected was ineffective ... -
Long-term coexistence of two invasive vespid wasps in NW Patagonia (Argentina)
(Springer, 2022-07-03)In Patagonia (Argentina) two non-native vespid wasps became established in the last decades. Vespula germanica was first detected in 1980, while V. vulgaris arrived some 30 years later. Both species can have a strong ... -

Monitoring and Surveillance of Forest Insects
(Springer, 2023-06)Monitoring of insect populations is widely used in forest entomology in the context of biodiversity studies, as an aspect of pest management, and for the detection and surveillance of non-native invasive species. In ... -
Native diversity buffers against severity of non-native tree invasions
(Springer Nature, 2023-09)Determining the drivers of non-native plant invasions is critical for managing native ecosystems and limiting the spread of invasive species1,2. Tree invasions in particular have been relatively overlooked, even though ... -

Si bien en el ... -
Should tree invasions be used in treeless ecosystems to mitigate climate change?
(The Ecological Society of America, 2021)Intentionally allowing or promoting invasion by non-native trees into areas characterized by treeless vegetation could contribute to climate-change mitigation by increasing carbon (C) sequestration. In some areas of the ... -
