Invaders are not a random selection of species (2009, result): “Although tolerance to pollution has been suggested as a trait of a successful invader for certain species (Den Hartog et al. 1992 ;C ¸ inar et al. 2005; Vila-Gispert et al. 2005; Boltovskoy et al. 2006; Piola and Johnston 2006; Rajagopal et al. 2006; Villar et al. 1999; Grabowski et al. 2007; and ”

The role of behavior in the success of invasive crustaceans (2010, background): “Generally, the invasive species were characterized by a combination of large brood size, high partial fecundity, early maturation, and by the appearance of higher number of generations per year (Grabowski et al. 2007).”
