This book provides a conceptually organized framework to understand
the phenomenon of biological invasions at the Anthropocene global
scale. Most advances toward that aim have been provided from North
American and European researchers, with fewer contributions from
Australia and South Africa. Here we fill the void from the
Neotropics, focusing on the research experience in South American
countries, with a strong emphasis on Argentina and Chile. The text
is divided into two parts: The first half comprises self-contained
chapters, providing a conceptual, bibliographic and empirical
foundation in the field of invasion biology, from an Anthropocene
perspective. The second half reviews the ecology, biogeography, and
local impacts in South America of exotic species groups (European
rabbit, Eurasian wild boar, Canadian beaver, North American mink,
and Holarctic freshwater fishes), which are shown to be useful
models for case studies of global relevance.
