• Island extinctions: processes, patterns, and potential for ecosystem restoration (2017, unknown): “On San Cristobal Island (Galápagos), pollen records showed that replanting strategies were based on a heavily modified system rather than the natural ‘pre-grazing’ shrubland (Bush et al. 2014).”
• Seed dispersal by Galápagos tortoises (2012, background): “The large body size of giant tortoises may render them ecological keystones and/or ecosystem engineers in common with traditionally defined megaherbivores (Gibbs et al., 2008, 2010; Hansen et al., 2008, 2010; Griffiths et al., 2010).”
