Marler, T.E., & Lawrence, J.H. 2012 Demography of Cycas micronesica on Guam following introduction of the armoured scale Aulacaspis yasumatsui. Journal of Tropical Ecology 28: 233–242
Keywords:
Notes: Following the 2003 invasion of the armoured scale Aulacaspis yasumatsui>/i> to Guam, changes to population traits of the dominant Cycas micronesica were determined. This classic example of the enemy release hypothesis has resulted in a homogeneous decline in plant density from 2007–2011. The trend predicted extirpation of C. micronesica from west Guam habitats by 2019.
