The challenges faced by endemic Galápagos weevils, and how do introduced species succeed anyway?
Abstract: The presentation will explore the colonization history of a group of endemic broad-nosed weevils in the archipelago and the current status of introduced and endemic populations. Additionally, the talk will expand on ongoing research showcasing the mating strategies of endemics and their introduced close relatives.
