World of Crayfish™: a web platform towards real-time global mapping of freshwater crayfish and their pathogens [PDF]
PeerJFreshwater crayfish are amongst the largest macroinvertebrates and play a keystone role in the ecosystems they occupy. Understanding the global distribution of these animals is often hindered due to a paucity of distributional data.

Detection and Control of Invasive Freshwater Crayfish: From Traditional to Innovative Methods
Diversity, 2019 Invasive alien species are widespread in freshwater systems compared to terrestrial ecosystems. Among crustaceans, crayfish in particular have been widely introduced and are considered a major threat to freshwater ecosystem functioning.

A synthetic phylogeny of freshwater crayfish: insights for conservation. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2015 Phylogenetic systematics is heading for a renaissance where we shift from considering our phylogenetic estimates as a static image in a published paper and taxonomies as a hardcopy checklist to treating both the phylogenetic estimate and dynamic taxonomies as metadata for further analyses.
