Ecology of invasive mosquitoes: effects on resident species and on human health
SA Juliano, L Philip Lounibos - Ecology letters, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Investigations of biological invasions focus on patterns and processes that are related to
introduction, establishment, spread and impacts of introduced species. This review focuses …

Empirical evidence of type III functional responses and why it remains rare
More than 70 years after its introduction, the framework of resource density-dependent
consumption rates, also known as predator-prey functional responses, remains a core …

Advancing impact prediction and hypothesis testing in invasion ecology using a comparative functional response approach
Invasion ecology urgently requires predictive methodologies that can forecast the ecological
impacts of existing, emerging and potential invasive species. We argue that many …

Intraguild predation diminished in complex‐structured vegetation: implications for prey suppression
DL Finke, RF Denno - Ecology, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
Multiple‐predator limitation of prey populations may be mediated by both predator–predator
interactions and vegetation structure. Antagonistic interactions among predators, such as …

A consumer–resource approach to the density‐dependent population dynamics of mutualism
JN Holland, DL DeAngelis - Ecology, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Like predation and competition, mutualism is now recognized as a consumer–resource (C–

The functional response of parasitoids and its implications for biological control
V Fernández-arhex, JC Corley - Biocontrol Science and …, 2003 - Taylor & Francis
The parasitoid functional response is regarded as central to host–parasitoid dynamics. If so,
then the shape of this response may be related to parasitoid success in biological control …
