Introductions of non‐native freshwater fish continue to increase globally, although only a
small proportion of these introductions will result in an invasion. These invasive populations …

The subphylum Crustacea includes the most successful species among aquatic alien
invaders. The impacts of invasive alien crustaceans (IAC) are often substantial, due to the …

Ecology Letters (2010) 13: 947–958 Abstract What determines invasiveness of alien
organisms is among the most interesting and urgent questions in ecology. In attempts to …

Abstract The European green crab Carcinus maenas is one of the world's most successful
aquatic invaders, having established populations on every continent with temperate shores …

From the depths of the oceans to the shallow estuaries and wetlands of our coasts,
organisms of the marine environment are teeming with unique adaptations to cope with a …

The extent to which the geographic distributions of marine organisms have been reshaped
by human activities remains underappreciated, and so does, consequently, the impact of …

Abstract Theory predicts that reproductive isolation may be due to intrinsic genetic

Abstract The Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis is an indigenous and economically
important species in China, but can also be found as invasive species in Europe and …

With expanding trade resulting in increased global transport of non-native species, a
broader understanding of the mechanisms of marine invasions is becoming increasingly …

Background The potential role hybridisation in adaptive radiation and the evolution of new
lineages has received much recent attention. Hybridisation between roach (Rutilus rutilus L.) …
