Are urban systems beneficial, detrimental, or indifferent for biological invasion? (2017, background): “First, urban areas are defined by a unique combination of environmental conditions that do not exist in unmodified landscapes (Ricotta et al. 2009; Wilby and Perry 2006).”
Native and alien floras in urban habitats: a comparison across 32 cities of central Europe (2012, background): “…floras across large areas based on standardized sampling protocols are rare (but see Celesti-Grapow & Blasi, 1998; Loram et al., 2008) and a few published meta-analyses used data from various sources which may not be directly comparable (Pyšek, 1998; La Sorte et al., 2008; Ricotta et al., 2009).”
Phylogenetic and functional characteristics of household yard floras and their changes along an urbanization gradient (2012, background): “…the percentage of exotics in complete urban floras (including land areas beyond yards): Pyšek (1998a) showed an average of 40% of exotic plant species for 54 Central European cities; U.S. cities have percentages between 18% and 34% (calculated from species numbers given in Ricotta et al. 2009).”
