The invasive seagrass Halophila stipulacea prefers the same niche as starting points of invasion. Using field experiments, Smulders et al. (Article e3980; doi:10.1002/ecy.3980) found that the invasive seagrass outcompetes the native jellyfish by overgrowing the bioturbation mounds. The authors predict this will result in dynamic seagrass meadows, unfavorable for valuable native seagrass species. Their study can be found in The Scientific Naturalist section of this issue.
