Increases in invertebrate abundance and shifts in assemblage composition following Rodent Eradication on Lord Howe Island

Terence W. O’Dwyer, Maxim W.D. Adams, Thomas E. White, John L. Porter, Dean J. Portelli, Nathan C. Lo, Nicholas Carlile

This study examines the impact of rodent eradication on invertebrate abundance and assemblage composition on Lord Howe Island, finding increased abundance and shifts in composition but no change in ordinal diversity.

Pleistocene sea-level fluctuation shapes archipelago-wide population structure in the Endangered Lord Howe Island cockroach Panesthia lata

Maxim W.D. Adams, Kyle M. Ewart, Nicholas Carlile, Harley A. Rose, James Walker, Ian John Hutton, Simon Y. W. Ho, Nathan Lo

This study investigates how Pleistocene sea-level changes influenced the genetic structure of cockroaches across Lord Howe Island, finding evidence of past land bridges and genetic isolation.

Island syndrome in the critically endangered Lord Howe Island cockroach Panesthia lata

Susannah K. Coady, Maxim W.D. Adams, Harley A. Rose, James A. Walker, Ian John Hutton, Rosalyn Gloag, Nathan C. Lo

This study examines behavioral adaptations in the Lord Howe Island cockroach, finding reduced male aggression and increased aggregation, supporting the behavioral island syndrome in invertebrates.
