UNDERSTANDING AND MANAGING BIODIVERSITY IN RELATION TO NATIVE CRAYFISH POPULATIONS IN EUROPE
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2003 The loss or diminution of European crayfish populations because of both habitat deterioration and competition with alien crayfish – also responsible for the dissemination of the crayfish plague – would reduce the biodiversity at the species level.

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2006 The American spiny-cheek crayfish, Orconectes limosus, was first introduced into European waters in 1890. The first literature record about the occurrence of O. limosus on the territory of the Czech Republic was published almost 100 years later – in 1989.

Symbiotic bacteria from crayfish cuticle: a possibility for biocontrol of crayfish plague disease? [PDF]
, 2019 Microorganism Aphanomyces astaci (Schikora, 1906) causes the lethal disease crayfish plague, one of the reasons for decline of native decapod crayfish populationsin Europe. While A. astaci zoospores penetrate through the crayfish cuticle during the infection process, they encounter epibiontic bacterial communities on the cuticle surface.
