DISTRIBUTION AND REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF AUSTROPOTAMOBIUS TORRENTIUM IN BAVARIA AND DOCUMENTATION OF A CONTACT ZONE WITH THE ALIEN CRAYFISH PACIFASTACUS LENIUSCULUS

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005
In Bavarian freshwater systems, the stone crayfish Austropotamobius torrentium is still present in many headwaters of Danubian tributaries. Since the 1960s an alien species, the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus, was introduced several times ...

Crayfish as trophic agents: Effect of Austropotamobius torrentium on zoobenthos structure and function in small forest streams

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
Crayfish are among the largest and most threatened invertebrates in freshwater habitats. Due to their size, behaviour and feeding activity they may affect structure and function of aquatic ecosystems and their organisms.

AUSTROPOTAMOBIUS TORRENTIUM (SCHRANK, 1803) IN THE AGGITIS CAVE (NORTHERN GREECE).IS IT A CAVE-DWELLING SPECIES?

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005
Although the stone crayfish, Austropotamobius torrentium (Schrank, 1803), is widespread in central and southeastern Europe, including Greece, it has not been recorded living deep inside caves before. Recently, however, it has been recorded from a variety

A contribution to the knowledge on the distribution of native crayfish Austropotamobius torrentium (Schrank, 1803) in Serbia

, 2017
The native crayfish species Austropotamobius torrentium presumably inhabits mountainous streams at higher altitudes. As Serbia is one of few countries in its native range with general lack of data regarding conservation status of A. torrentium, there is a need to provide up-to-date basic data regarding distribution and population status of the species.

Natural Biota’s Contribution to Cultured Aquatic Animals’ Growth in Aquaculture Cannot Be Ignored

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The rapid expansion of the aquaculture industry is accompanied by high organic and nutrient loadings from formulated feeds. This leads to water deterioration and pathogenic microorganisms. Natural biota (e.g., bacteria, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and zoobenthos) in ponds form important parts of cultured aquatic animals’ diets.

Suitability of Natura 2000 sites for threatened freshwater species under projected climate change

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 1872-1887, December 2022., 2022
Abstract As part of the world's largest coordinated network of protected areas, Natura 2000, European Union member states designate special areas of conservation (SACs) to maintain or achieve favourable conservation status for imperilled aquatic species listed under Annex II of the Habitats Directive.
