Superior predatory ability and abundance predicts potential ecological impact towards early-stage anurans by invasive ‘Killer Shrimp’ (Dikerogammarus villosus)
Abstract Invasive alien species negatively impact upon biodiversity and generate significant economic costs worldwide. Globally, amphibians have suffered considerable losses, with a key driver being predation by large invasive invertebrate and vertebrate predators. However, there is no research rega...
