Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Oecologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s004420000574
Abstract: Metapopulation models are important in explaining the distribution and abundance of species through time and space. These models combine population dynamics with stochastic variation in extinction and immigration parameters associated with local populations. One of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-019-3966-z
Abstract: The saddled blenny Malacoctenus triangulatus is a widely distributed species of cryptobenthic reef fish that occurs from the Caribbean to southeastern Brazil, including the oceanic islands. Subtle morphological differences have been observed between populations, suggesting some… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2021.107619
Abstract: Abstract Factors that influence the composition and diversity of soil nematode communities on oceanic islands are poorly understood. In this study, we evaluated the soil nematode communities and associated biotic and abiotic factors on five… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112641
Abstract: Seafloor litter in oceanic islands of the southeastern Pacific Ocean have rarely been described and quantified, mainly due to the associated logistical challenges. In this study, we describe and quantify the different kinds of litter… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0030605319001364
Abstract: Abstract The introduction of mammal predators has been a major cause of species extinctions on oceanic islands. Eradication is only possible or cost-effective at early stages of invasion, before introduced species become abundant and widespread.… read more here.

Unpaid extinction debts for endemic plants and invertebrates as a legacy of habitat loss on oceanic islands
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Diversity and Distributions"
DOI: 10.1111/ddi.12590
Abstract: Aim The majority of documented extinctions world-wide in the last four centuries are of species endemic to islands. However, the phenomenon of delayed extinctions as a result of habitat loss has rarely been assessed on… read more here.

Migratory gauntlets on oceanic islands: Watershed disturbance increases the cost of amphidromy

DOI: 10.1111/eff.12467
Abstract: Migratory fishes can be threatened by conditions encountered along dispersal pathways that impede access to feeding or breeding grounds. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that amphidromous fishes are equally or more sensitive to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.13997
Abstract: Islands frequently harbour unique assemblages of species, yet their ecological roles and differences are largely ignored in island biogeography studies. Here, we examine eco-evolutionary processes structuring mammal assemblages on oceanic islands worldwide, including all extant… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/insects12030268
Abstract: Simple Summary Endemic Collembola species are bioindicators of environmental quality since native species abundance is particularly sensitive to environmental disturbances. Oceanic island biota generally present high percentages of endemic species, and the vulnerability of these… read more here.
