| importance of competition mechanisms in successive invasions by polyphagous tephritids in la reunion. | understanding the strength and modes of interspecific interactions between introduced and resident species (native or previously introduced) is necessary to predict invasion success. we evaluated different mechanisms of interspecific competition among four species of polyphagous fruit flies (diptera: tephritidae) from the island of la reunion: one endemic species, ceratitis catoirii, and three exotic species, c. capitata, c. rosa, and bactrocera zonata, that have successively invaded the island. ... | 2006 | 16922326 |
| climatic niche partitioning following successive invasions by fruit flies in la réunion. | 1. biological invasions have profound effects on community structure. the community composition following invasions can be influenced by the habitat diversity and the species' responses to abiotic factors. 2. we evaluated the tolerance to climatic factors and analysed the field distribution of four polyphagous fruit flies (diptera: tephritidae) of la réunion island (three exotic species that successively invaded the island and the endemic species ceratitis catoirii) in order to evaluate the oppo ... | 2006 | 16638004 |
