• How common are invasion-induced ecosystem impacts? (2011, background): “…example of an introduced worm having enormous effects on soils, and therefore probably on entire ecosystems, is Pontoscolex corethrurus, native to the Guyana plateau but introduced throughout the tropics, including parts of Amazonia, Puerto Rico, and Queensland, Australia (González et al. 2006).”
• Pandora's Box Contained Bait : The Global Problem of Introduced Earthworms (2008, background): “…contributing to high species richness of exotic earthworms probably include the history of introductions in the wake of human colonization and commerce and environmental tolerances of introduced earthworms relative to conditions in their new habitats (Gonzalez et al. 2006, James & Hendrix 2004).”
