The 56 pages that link to Biological invasion, each with the reason it gives.

• Invasive speciesNarrower topic: This broader process includes introductions that have not yet caused harm.

• Columbian ExchangeNarrower topic: Introduced species became lasting parts of ecosystems far from their places of origin.

• Biological pest controlCompared with: Introducing a control organism can itself create invasion risks if screening is inadequate.

• Forest fragmentationRelated: Disturbed edges can facilitate the entry and spread of some non-native species.

• Freshwater ecosystemRelated: Introduced organisms can restructure food webs and displace native freshwater species.

• EcologyRelated: It examines ecological change caused by species moving beyond native ranges.

• AllelopathyNarrower topic: Allelopathy has been proposed as one explanation for invasive plants’ effects, alongside other mechanisms.

• Freshwater biodiversityRelated: Non-native species can alter food webs and displace native freshwater organisms.

• DispersalRelated: Dispersal helps introduced populations spread beyond their initial release sites.

• Invasive species managementNarrower topic: Management depends on ecological processes that determine which species spread and cause harm.

• Introduced speciesNarrower topic: It examines the processes that can follow an introduction.

• Island restorationNarrower topic: Invasions are a major driver of island decline and a central target of restoration.

• PampasRelated: Introduced plants and animals can alter native grassland communities and agricultural systems.

• PheasantRelated: Pheasant introductions are a case of deliberate animal translocation and establishment.

• Spore dispersalRelated: Dispersed spores can found populations beyond a species' original range.

• Plant pathogenNarrower topic: Pathogens moved beyond their native ranges can encounter susceptible hosts with little evolved resistance.

• Ecological connectivityRelated: The same links that aid native movement can help introduced species spread.

• American minkNarrower topic: Mink escapes and releases have produced persistent populations outside North America.

• Aquarium tradeRelated: The risk from aquarium releases depends on species, climate, and local ecosystems.

• Community (ecology)Related: Introduced species can change community composition and interactions.

• House sparrowRelated: Introductions carried the house sparrow beyond its Eurasian native range.

• Plant ecologyRelated: Plant invasions reveal how dispersal, competition, and disturbance shape communities.

• Oceanic dispersalCompared with: It emphasizes harmful establishment, whereas oceanic dispersal includes crossings with no invasion.

• SynanthropyCompared with: A species can be synanthropic in its native range without being an invader.

• Brown troutRelated: Brown trout introductions illustrate how a valued fishery species can become an ecological invader.

• Argentine antRelated: Its movement through trade and subsequent spread exemplify biological invasion.

• Biological dispersalRelated: Dispersal can carry introduced organisms beyond release sites into new habitats.

• Eurasian collared doveNarrower topic: The dove’s establishment beyond its native range is a prominent example of rapid range expansion.

• GuppyRelated: Aquarium releases and pest-control introductions have moved guppies into new waters.

• TradescantiaRelated: This framework explains the ecological consequences of naturalized Tradescantia populations.

• Ulmus pumilaNarrower topic: Siberian elm's spread beyond Asia exemplifies plant invasion.

• American bullfrogRelated: Introduced bullfrogs have established populations on multiple continents.

• MynaRelated: Mynas moved by people exemplify how introduced birds can become established far from Asia.

• Parasitoid waspCompared with: A released wasp can become invasive if it spreads beyond its intended pest target.

• Phragmites australisNarrower topic: Some introduced common reed lineages spread aggressively beyond their native ranges.

• Pinus halepensisNarrower topic: Introduced Aleppo pine populations illustrate how planted trees can spread into surrounding habitats.

• Yellow crazy antNarrower topic: Human transport helped the ant reach islands where it could establish dense populations.

• Acacia pycnanthaNarrower topic: Golden wattle has become invasive in some places where it was introduced.

• AchatinaRelated: Transport beyond Africa has allowed some large land snails to establish new populations.

• Amsterdam IslandRelated: Introduced mammals have transformed parts of the island’s vegetation.

• Common house geckoRelated: Human transport and settlement have helped this gecko establish populations worldwide.

• Common starlingRelated: Introduced starling populations illustrate how a transported species can spread widely.

• InfestationCompared with: Invasion describes geographic establishment; infestation often describes a local burden of organisms.

• Lissachatina fulicaNarrower topic: Its global expansion is a well-known case of a human-assisted biological invasion.

• Mediterranean house geckoRelated: Transport by people has established populations far beyond its Mediterranean origin.

• Nile monitorRelated: The species' introduction to Florida raises questions about pathways, spread, and ecological impact.

• Tapinoma melanocephalumNarrower topic: The species’ worldwide distribution is a clear example of a small ant spreading through human transport.

• Theoretical ecologyRelated: Spread and competition models help predict where introduced species may establish.

• Acacia decurrensNarrower topic: Black wattle’s spread abroad exemplifies the ecological side of its cultivation.

• CarassiusRelated: Introduced Carassius, especially Prussian carp, can become abundant and disrupt local fish communities.
