DOI: 10.1007/s10530-019-02126-2
Abstract: Despite being a well-recognized issue, the introduction of non-native marine species is an underestimated topic in highly biodiverse developing countries. The Indonesian archipelago sits at the center of the Coral Triangle, extending over several biogeographic… read more here.

Invasion syndromes: a systematic approach for predicting biological invasions and facilitating effective management

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-020-02220-w
Abstract: Our ability to predict invasions has been hindered by the seemingly idiosyncratic context-dependency of individual invasions. However, we argue that robust and useful generalisations in invasion science can be made by considering “invasion syndromes” which… read more here.

Invasion ecology meets parasitology: Advances and challenges
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ijppaw.2017.03.006
Abstract: Biological invasions threaten the diversity and functioning of native ecosystems, and the rate at which species are being introduced to new areas shows no sign of slowing down. Parasites play roles in biological invasions, for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marenvres.2021.105340
Abstract: The status of aquatic ecosystems has historically been monitored by the use of biotic indices. However, few biotic measures consider the presence of non-indigenous species as a sign of anthropogenic pollution and habitat disturbance even… read more here.
