Trophic interactions of an invasive gecko in an endemic-rich oceanic island: Insights using DNA metabarcoding

Understanding the trophic interactions of introduced predators is key for evidence-based management of biological invasions. This is particularly important in oceanic islands, where predator-prey networks often include numerous endemic and range-restricted species. Geckos are successful island colon...
