Population Dynamics of the Exotic Flatworm Obama nungara in an Invaded Garden by Shanèze Noël, Yoan Fourcade, Virginie Roy, Georges Bonnet, Lise Dupont

“…We also suggested the important resilience of O. nungara population in this site, which was able to recover from a drastic demographic bottleneck due to a severe drought, as well to systematic removal by the owner of the site. These findings highlight the potentially high invasiveness of O. nungara and raise concerns about the major threat these invasive flatworms pose to the populations of their prey.…”
