Asymmetric competitive effects during species range expansion: An experimental assessment of interaction strength between “equivalent” grazer species in their range overlap

Abstract: Biotic interactions are central to the development of theory and concepts in community ecology; experimental evidence has shown their strong effects on patterns of population and community organization and dynamics over local spatial scales. The role of competition in determining range limits and preventing invasions at biogeographic scales is more controversial, partly because of the complexity of processes involved in species colonization of novel habitats and the difficulties in performing appropriate manip… Show more

“…Tyberghein et al 2012), there are currently no databases that include the distribution of coastal rocky substrate. To measure this for the EP, we traced around the contours of the outer mainland coastline at a constant elevation of 5 km above sea level (viewed perpendicularly) in cumulative 48 km (c. 30 mile) bins using the software program Google Earth (v. 7.1.5; similar to Fenberg & Rivadeneira 2011;Mart ınez et al 2017;Aguilera et al 2018). The transect does not cover deep coastal inlets such as river estuaries (e.g.…”

“…The distribution of the focal Scurria species and recent range shifts of S. viridula in central‐northern Chile have been documented in field studies across the region (see Aguilera et al, 2013 b , 2019 a , b ). Long‐term abundance data sets (i.e., 1998–2000, 2003 –2005, and 2009–2015) of Scurria limpets, estimated through positioning 50 × 50 cm quadrats, from higher to lower intertidal levels, at different sites spanning ~1,600 km from north to central Chile, show a well‐defined geographic overlap of both herbivore species between 30° and 32° S (see Fig.…”

“…Such impacts cannot simply be anticipated by the effects in the original community, as the novel environmental conditions encountered by the invader may alter its individual performance. In this study, we take advantage of the recent poleward range expansion of an intertidal rocky shore herbivore, the limpet Scurria viridula (Rivadeneira and Fernández 2005, Aguilera et al 2013 b , 2019 b ). This limpet has recently extended its region of overlap with its closely related congener S. zebrina to form a broad transitional zone, where both species co‐occur, from 30° to 32° S (Aguilera et al 2013 b , 2019 b ).…”
