Thank you for your JSR 2016 paper on parasites and marine invasions. I have been looking for a good paper that summarizes the ecological and evolutionary implications of parasite invasions and yours does such a nice job. While I will certainly cite it in future papers, I’m also going to use it as a foundational paper in an upcoming class I’m teaching. Thank you for your contribution!

Preparing a talk at the EAFP meeting in Belfast and re-reading your 2016 J. Sea Research synthesis, which will be important background. Very nice paper!
