Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is argued that genomics tools need to be adopted in restoration ecology to help reverse the environmental destruction caused by humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversification of Fijian halictine bees: insights into a recent island radiation.
TL;DR: It is argued that Homalictus first colonised the Fijian archipelago in the middle-late Pleistocene, and the rapid accumulation of haplotypes in the hyper-diverse clade occurred in the Holocene, but prior to recorded human presence in the Fiji region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bees in the Southwest Pacific: Origins, diversity and conservation
TL;DR: It is argued that future research in the Southwest Pacific must encourage local expertise and build this into global research directions in an effort to address a lack of fundamental knowledge of bee diversity in island ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel responses of bees to Pleistocene climate change in three isolated archipelagos of the southwestern Pacific.
TL;DR: It is shown that all three island faunas suffered massive population declines, roughly corresponding in time to the LGM, followed by rapid expansion post-LGM, which suggests that Pleistocene climate change has had major impacts across a very broad tropical region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple recent introductions of apid bees into Pacific archipelagos signify potentially large consequences for both agriculture and indigenous ecosystems
Scott V. C. Groom,Hien T. Ngo,Sandra M. Rehan,Posa Skelton,Mark I. Stevens,Mark I. Stevens,Michael P. Schwarz +6 more
TL;DR: DNA barcodes are used to provide the first detailed account of Apidae bees from Vanuatu, Fiji, and Samoa to show that most if not all species in these archipelagos have been recently introduced from Australia and south east Asia.
