Increases in invertebrate abundance and shifts in assemblage composition following Rodent Eradication on Lord Howe Island

2025-10-17

Abstract excerpt

Invasive species are one of the major threatening processes impacting biodiversity on islands. In particular, introduced rodents represent one of the most serious threats to island ecosystems, affecting a wide range of native plants, vertebrates and invertebrates. While nearly ubiquitous on human-modified islands, the last four decades have seen the advent of targeted rodent eradications, which have generally resu...
