Better Alone Than in Bad Company: Trophic Ecology of Co‐Occurring Invasive and Native Crayfish

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
This study investigated and compared trophic interactions between invasive signal crayfish and native white‐clawed crayfish at sites of co‐occurrence and in allopatry. The presence of crayfish plague, body condition, and trophic niche traits were explored as possible factors that make invasive signal crayfish a strong competitor, enhancing its ...
