En: In: Van Drieshce R, Reardon R, eds. Supressing Over-abundant Invasive Plants and Insects in Natural Areas by Use of Their Specialized Natural Enemies USDA Forest Health Technology Enterprise TeamTema: The Galápagos archipelago, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve, is renowned for its high levels of endemic flora and fauna, a result of its isolation from other land masses and late colonization by humans. These ecosystems are so unique that they have recently been recognized as one of the 137 most irreplaceable protected areas in the world (Le Saout et al., 2013). A fast-growing tourist destination, this archipelago has seen a rapid a rise in visitors and residents since the 1990s, and the Galápagos are increasingly becoming more connected to the rest of the world. With this, pathways for alien species have multiplied, and the threats associated with these bio-invasions are increasing.
