Species Richness and Patterns of Invasion in Plants, Birds, and Fishes in the United States

2006-04-01

Abstract excerpt

We quantified broad-scale patterns of species richness and species density (mean # species/km2) for native and non-indigenous plants, birds, and fishes in the continental USA and Hawaii. We hypothesized that the species density of native and non-indigenous taxa would generally decrease in northern latitudes and higher elevations following declines in potential evapotranspiration, mean temperature, and precipitatio...
