ABSTRACT The use of environmental DNA (eDNA) as a tool for monitoring represents a major innovative advance in environmental science, one that enables the detection of species without the need to observe or capture them. This article assesses the state of play of eDNA research targeting crayfish.

Abstract To face the current downward trajectory of freshwater biodiversity loss, the implementation of effective biodiversity monitoring programs is of utmost importance. Environmental DNA offers unprecedented opportunities for this aim but several challenges still need to be addressed before implementing efficient species monitoring using eDNA.

The effects of drought on biodiversity in UK river ecosystems: Drying rivers in a wet country
Biodiversity in UK river ecosystems has, to date, proven resilient to drought, with communities recovering within weeks to years. But future droughts could be hotter, drier and more frequent, and could start and end faster, which could cause communities to shift to alternative, species‐poor and functionally simplified states. Abstract Climate change is

Feeding specialization and activity in certain mangrove crabs [PDF]
Decapoda is surely one of the most important taxa, both regarding the number of species and individuals, in the macrofauna of the mangrove ecosystem (Macnae, 1968; Macintosh, 1988).

Taming the terminological tempest in invasion science
ABSTRACT Standardised terminology in science is important for clarity of interpretation and communication. In invasion science – a dynamic and rapidly evolving discipline – the proliferation of technical terminology has lacked a standardised framework for its development.

The impact of streetlights on an aquatic invasive species: artificial light at night alters signal crayfish behaviour [PDF]
Artificial light at night (ALAN) can significantly alter the behaviour, communication and orientation of animals, and will potentially interact with other stressors to affect biodiversity.

Der Edelkrebs (Astacus astacus) im Kreis Höxter [PDF]
Bis Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts waren in den Gewässern Deutschlands drei Flusskrebsarten beheimatet. Während der Edelkrebs (Astacus astacus; Abb. 1) ursprünglich in ganz Deutschland anzutreffen war, beschränkten sich die Vorkommen des Dohlenkrebses ...
