Simultaneous detection of native and invasive crayfish and Aphanomyces astaci from environmental DNA samples in a wide range of habitats in Central Europe [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2020 Crayfish of North American origin are amongst the most prominent high-impact invasive invertebrates in European freshwaters. They contribute to the decline of European native crayfish species by spreading the pathogen causing crayfish plague, the ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 5, Page 869-879, September 2025.Animal personality plays a key role in translocation success in both wild‐to‐wild and captive‐to‐wild translocations, with important implications for the success of conservation projects. However, the majority of studies so far have explored the link between personality and translocation success in vertebrate translocations, and there has been less ...

Spatial and Ontogenetic Patterns in the Trophic Ecology of Two Predatory Fishes in a Large River
Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Fishes use a variety of physical and biological resources that shift ontogenetically, seasonally and spatially. Quantifying what resources such as prey are required for persistence can improve understanding of ecological needs of fishes and riverine macrosystem functioning.

The parthenogenetic Marmorkrebs (Malacostraca: Decapoda: Cambaridae) is a triploid organism
Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, 2015 There is a close association between parthenogenesis and polyploidy. For this reason, we undertook a karyological analysis to test whether the parthenogenetic Marmorkrebs, Procambarus fallax forma virginalis, possesses an enlarged set of chromosomes. For this purpose, we karyotyped the Marmorkrebs, the sexual form of P.
