A first worldwide multispecies survey of invasive Mediterranean pine bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae)
(Springer, 2020-02)Several European and Mediterranean species of pine bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) have become established in North America and the southern hemisphere, posing a novel threat to planted and naturally-occurring ... -
Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) distribution modelling improves our understanding of pest range limits
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)Spatial distributions models (SDM) are often used in invasive pest management to understand current and potential distribution. Using data on the well-studied spotted wing drosophila as a model, we compared distribution ... -
Ecological effects and management of invasive alien Vespidae
(Springer, 2011-08)Insect species associated with human goods continue to be accidentally introduced into new locations. A small proportion of these introduced species become invasive, causing a range of impacts in the receiving community. ... -
Factors driving historic intercontinental invasions of European pine bark beetles
(Springer, 2022-06)Largely assisted by global trade, alien insect species are being introduced into new territories at unprecedented rates. Among forest insects, pine bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) are a large and diverse ... -
Flexible foraging decisions made by workers of the social wasp Vespula germanica (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in response to different resources: influence of ontogenetic shifts and colony feedback
(Wiley, 2022-04)Decisions made by foraging animals conform a complex process based on the integration of information from multiple external environmental stimuli and internal physiological signals, which in turn are modulated by individual ... -
Foraging behavior interactions between two non-native social wasps, Vespula germanica and V. vulgaris (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) : implications for invasion success?
(2016-01)Vespula vulgaris is an invasive scavenging social wasp that has very recently arrived in Patagonia (Argentina), a territory previously invaded – 35 yrs earlier – by another wasp, Vespula germanica. Although V. vulgaris ... -
Genetic assessment of the invasion history of Drosophila suzukii in Argentina
(Springer Nature, 2019-08)Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is a highly polyphagous fruit pest native to eastern Asia, which in the last decade had widely expanded its range and become a serious pest in the Americas and Europe. Invasion ... -
Global Invader Impact Network (GIIN): toward standardized evaluation of the ecological impacts of invasive plants
(2015-07)Terrestrial invasive plants are a global problem and are becoming ubiquitous components of most ecosystems. They are implicated in altering disturbance regimes, reducing biodiversity, and changing ecosystem function, ... -
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 ...
