• Dietary shifts in two vultures after the demise of supplementary feeding stations: consequences of the EU sanitary legislation (2010, background): “Coexistence of species exploiting the same resource is facilitated by heterogeneous environments, which allow differential use of patches with variable environmental features and resource availability (Brown et al. 1994; Wauters et al. 2002; Carrete et al. 2005; Stephens et al. 2007).”
• Biotic indirect effects: a neglected concept in invasion biology (2006, background): “, 2004; Miller & Gorchov, 2004) and between alien and native fauna (e.g. Bryce et al., 2002; Jensen et al., 2002; Landwer & Ferguson, 2002; Wauters et al., 2002; Cadi & Joly, 2003).”
• Alien species and interspecific competition: effects of introduced eastern grey squirrels on red squirrel population dynamics (2004, background): “In the red‐grey site in Italy (site RG1), where there was a high degree of individual variation in the amount of core-area overlap of female red squirrels with grey squirrels ( Wauters et al. 2002b ), fecundity of female red squirrels tended to decrease with increasing interspecific core-area overla”
• Winners and losers in human‐made habitats: interspecific competition outcomes in two Neotropical vultures (2010, background): “…competition have concluded that a heterogeneous environment and an evolutionary trade-off between the abilities of the coexisting species to exploit different parts of an environment are essential for coexistence (e.g. Brown, Kotler & Mitchell, 1994; Wauters et al., 2002; Carrete et al., 2005).”
• A grey future for Europe: Sciurus carolinensis is replacing native red squirrels in Italy (2013, background): “This replacement is caused by competition for food resources between the two species that reduces juvenile body growth and recruitment, and female breeding success in red squirrel (Wauters et al. 2002a, b; Gurnell et al. 2004).”
