Which species is native to subtropical mangrove forests in Southeast Asia?

“Merops viridis” for which species is native to subtropical mangrove forests in southeast asia. This relationship follows from the ecological mechanism represented by the terms in the item, not merely from an association between their names. Species management must identify the demographic stage and ecological process that most strongly limits population growth. Prevention, early detection, removal, habitat manipulation, and biological control act at different points in an invasion or recovery trajectory. The remaining alternatives—“Lissachatina fulica”, “Prosopis juliflora”, “Eichhornia crass

Common impact of invasive species on native ecosystems?

“Decreased biodiversity” for common impact of invasive species on native ecosystems. This relationship follows from the ecological mechanism represented by the terms in the item, not merely from an association between their names. Effective control reduces propagule pressure or population growth without causing unacceptable non-target effects. Repeated monitoring is necessary because seed banks, dormant stages, recolonization, and density-dependent compensation can reverse short-term gains. The remaining alternatives—“Increased biodiversity”, “Stable ecological niches”, “Enhanced native popula
