Griffin, M.J., Trewick, S.A., Wehi, P. M. and Morgan-Richards, M. 2011 Exploring the concept of niche convergence in a land without rodents: the case of weta as small mammals. New Zealand Journal of Ecology (2011) 35(3):0-0 (3 copies)
A discussion of the use of the metaphor of weta as ecologically equivalent to rodents in other countries. This article takes an opposing stance, explaining how they are different in ecology and characteristics. This article shows that the reproductive potential and scale of change in population size differ greatly between mice and tree weta.
