  • An inventory of native-alien populations in South Africa 
    Nelufule, Takalani; Robertson, Mark P.; Wilson, John R.U.; Faulkner, Katelyn T. (Nature Research, 2023-04)
    Species can be both native and alien to a given administrative region. Here we present the first consolidated inventory of these ‘native-alien populations’ for South Africa, and provide an overview of the data it contains. ...

  • Native-alien populations—an apparent oxymoron that requires specific conservation attention 
    Nelufule, Takalani; Robertson, Mark P.; Wilson, John R.U.; Faulkner, Katelyn T. (Pensoft Publishers, 2022-06-10)
    Many countries define nativity at a country-level—taxa are categorised as either alien species or native species. However, there are often substantial within-country biogeographical barriers and so a taxon can be native ...
  • Numbers of invasive house sparrows Passer domesticus in a rural landscape of Limpopo province, South Africa 
    Shivambu, Cavin T.; Shivambu, Ndivhuwo; Nelufule, Takalani; Moshobane, Moleseng Claude; Zungu, Manqoba M.; Downs, Colleen T. (NISC (Pty) Ltd and Informa UK Limited (trading as Taylor & Francis Group), 2020)
    The House Sparrow Passer domesticus is recognised as one of the commonest avian invasive species globally, with its occurrence associated with human existence. However, relatively little on population sizes of this species ...
  • Occurrence record of and possible invasion by scarlet sage (Salvia coccinea Buc’hoz ex Etl.) in South Africa 
    Moshobane, Moleseng Claude; Nelufule, Takalani; Shivambu, Tinyiko Cavin; Shivambu, Ndivhuwo (Springer, 2020-10)
    The scarlet sage, Salvia coccinea, was first detected in Northern Province, South Africa in 1905, in what is now Limpopo Province. However, its presence and suitability in South Africa remains undocumented. We conducted ...
  • A proposed protocol for identifying native-alien populations 
    Nelufule, Takalani; Robertson, Mark P.; Wilson, John R.U.; Faulkner, Katelyn T. (Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2023-11)
    It is important for regulators and managers to effectively distinguish native from alien taxa. However, a taxon can have both native and alien populations within the same country as biogeographic and administrative ...
  • The threats posed by the pet trade in alien terrestrial invertebrates in South Africa 
    Nelufule, Takalani; Robertson, Mark P.; Wilson, John R.U.; Faulkner, Katelyn T.; Sole, Catherine L.; Kumschick, Sabrina (Elsevier, 2020-06)
    The pet trade has been a major pathway for the introduction of vertebrate invaders, but little is known about its role in invertebrate invasions. Here we assess the trade in terrestrial invertebrates (excluding spiders) ...
