TY - T1 - The Colonisation of Exotic Species Does Not Have to Trigger Faunal Homogenisation : Lessons from the Assembly Patterns of Arthropods on Oceanic Islands SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/160364 T3 - A1 - Florencio, Margarita; Lobo, Jorge M.; Cardoso, Pedro; Almeida-Neto, Mario; Borges, Paulo A. V. A2 - PB - Y1 - 2015 LA - eng AB - Human-caused disturbances can lead to the extinction of indigenous (endemic and native) species, while facilitating and increasing the colonisation of exotic species; this increase can, in turn, promote the similarity of species compositions between sites if human-disturbed sites are consistently invaded by a regionally species-poor pool of exotic species. In this study, we analysed the extent to which epigean arthropod assemblages of four islands of the Azorean archipelago are characterised by ...
