cryptic introductions and the interpretation of island biodiversity. | species with cryptic origins (i.e. those that cannot be reliably classed as native or non-native) present a particular challenge to our understanding of the generation and maintenance of biodiversity. such species may be especially common on islands given that some islands have had a relatively recent history of human settlement. it is likely that select island species considered native might have achieved their current distributions via direct or indirect human actions. as an example, we explor ... | 2013 | 23432192 |
island life shapes the physiology and life history of eastern bluebirds (sialia sialis). | abstract island organisms face a range of extrinsic threats to their characteristically small populations. certain biological differences between island and continental organisms have the potential to exacerbate these threats. understanding how island birds differ from their continental relatives may provide insight into population viability and serve as a predictive tool for conservation efforts. we compared an eastern bluebird population in ohio with a threatened population in bermuda in terms ... | 2014 | 24457931 |
