Abstract

A better understanding of plant invasions on islands can be gained from comparing patterns of exotic and native species richness. We asked four questions: (1) Is exotic species richness on islands related to native species richness? (2) If they are related, does this result from similar responses of native and exotic species to specific island characteristics? (3) Is residual variation in native‐exotic richness relationships associated with distinctive island characteristics? (4) Are relationships between species richness and island characteristics scale‐dependent, and do they differ between native and exotic species?
