• Successful island reintroductions of New Zealand robins and saddlebacks with small numbers of founders (2005, background): “Introduced predators such as stoats, cats and rats are still the primary drivers of extinction in saddlebacks and robins, as they are for most of New Zealand’s endemic bird fauna (Clout, 2001; Duncan & Blackburn, 2004).”
• Extinction patterns in the avifauna of the Hawaiian islands (2008, background): “Numerous authors have found that prehistoric extinction of the avifauna of many Polynesian islands was a result of human activities (Milberg & Tyrberg, 1993; Steadman et al ., 1999; Duncan et al ., 2002; Roff & Roff, 2003; Duncan & Blackburn, 2004).”
• Historical bird and terrestrial mammal extinction rates and causes (2012, unknown): “It is well known that island biota are generally at a higher risk of extinction (Diamond, 1989; Alcover et al., 1998; Baillie et al., 2004; Blackburn et al., 2004; Duncan & Blackburn, 2004; Pimm et al., 2006; Sax & Gaines, 2008; Fordham & Brook, 2010; Lane, 2010).”
• Island extinctions: processes, patterns, and potential for ecosystem restoration (2017, unknown): “Extinctions are biased towards taxa with susceptible traits (Roff & Roff 2003; Duncan & Blackburn 2004), causing heavy losses in certain trophic groups (Hansen & Galetti 2009; Johnson 2009).”
• Correlates of naturalization and occupancy of introduced ornamentals in Germany. (2008, methodology): “We therefore implemented taxonomical information as a proxy for phylogenetic relationships as a random factor in mixed effects models (see e.g. Prinzing et al., 2001; Cassey et al., 2004; Duncan and Blackburn, 2004; Sol et al., 2008).”
• Invasive predators and global biodiversity loss (2016, background): “Central America (including the Caribbean) has experienced the most extinctions (33 species), followed by Micro-/Mela-/ Polynesia (25), Australia (21), the Madagascar region (20), New Zealand (15), and Hawaii (11), with the remaining regions having 0–7 species extinctions each (Fig.”
• Incursion and excursion of Antarctic biota: past, present and future (2006, unknown): “In contrast, there are many studies showing that introductions of predators are coincident with native species disappearances, especially those of endemic species with small populations (see McKinney & Lockwood, 1999; Jones et al ., 2002; Blackburn et al ., 2004; Duncan & Blackburn, 2004).”
