Introduction
I am particularly interested in Botanics, Ecology and Evolution on Islands. I am currently a Phd Candidate working in the Department of Botany, Ecology and Plant Physiology in ULL and the Island Ecology and Evolution Research Group (IPNA-CSIC). We are assessing the insights behind biodiversity patterns and invasion processes on land plants on islands through various different methodologies.

The Canary Islands harbor four species of the genus Reichardia according to the current knowledge. Three of them are endemic to the archipelago, one is widespread but probably also native. The discovery of a putative population of R. intermedia on La Gomera as a fifth Reichardia species triggered the revisiting of neglected historical occurrence re...
Las invasiones biológicas representan una de las amenazas de origen humano más importantes para la biodiversidad en islas oceánicas, junto con el cambio climático y la destrucción del hábitat. Este capítulo analiza los mecanismos que han impulsado el aumento de especies de plantas introducidas e invasoras en las islas Canarias, diferenciando entre...
Aim
Understanding the historical and contemporaneous drivers of invasion success in island systems can decisively contribute to identifying sources and pathways that are more likely to give rise to new invaders. Based on a floristic‐driven approach, we aimed at determining the origins of the invasive alien flora of the Canary Islands and shedding l...
Campylopus introflexus es una especie de musgo acrocárpico nativa del hemisferio sur, pero que ha sido introducida en numerosas zonas del hemisferio norte donde actúa como invasora. En este artículo se analiza la presencia de esta especie en Tenerife (Islas Canarias, España) así como el marco temporal de su historia de invasión.
