In the Anthropocene, non-native freshwater fish introductions and translocations have
occurred extensively worldwide. However, their global distribution patterns and the factors …

Despite long-standing interest of terrestrial ecologists, freshwater ecosystems are a fertile,
yet unappreciated, testing ground for applying community phylogenetics to uncover …

Exotic species invasions often result in native biodiversity loss, ie a lower taxonomic
diversity, but current knowledge on invasions effects underlined a potential increase of …

Aim Analysing the spatio‐temporal patterns and dynamics of non‐native species is essential
to understanding the mechanisms underlying successful invasions and developing effective …

Aim To identify key research questions and challenges that will, if addressed in a timely
manner, significantly advance the field of freshwater fish biogeography and conservation …

Evidence for the theory of biotic resistance is equivocal, with experiments often finding a
negative relationship between invasion success and native species richness, and large …

Aim Taxonomic dissimilarity between assemblages can result from two processes–the
replacement of species (turnover) and differences in richness–but it remains unclear how …

Alien or non-native species are defined as species living outside their natural distributional
ranges. The spread of alien species is increasing globally as a result of rapid technological …

Aim Human‐mediated species introductions and extirpations have resulted in the
homogenization of biotas over time. However, there remains considerable uncertainty in our …

Since Darwin's time, degree of ecological similarity between exotic and native species has
been assumed to affect the establishment success or failure of exotic species. However, a …
