APPLICATIONS OF PHYLOGENETICS TO ISSUES IN FRESHWATER CRAYFISH BIOLOGY
Freshwater crayfish have served as model organisms for over 125 years in scientific research, from areas such as neurobiology and vision research to conservation biology and evolution.

The home range of the signal crayfish in a British lowland river [PDF]
The signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana), a native of north-western North America, is now a common resident in some British fresh waters following its introduction to England in 1976 (Lowery & Holdich 1988).

Epizooic Diatoms on the Cerci of Ephemeroptera (Caenidae) Naiads [PDF]
Using scanning electron microscopy, epizooic diatoms were observed growing on the cerci of Caenis amica Hagen naiads (Ephemeroptera, Caenidae). Meridion circulare (Greville) C.

Abstract To better understand the dynamics of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in complex freshwater ecosystems, we performed a systematic meta‐analysis of PFAS distributions and spatiotemporal variance in biota of the Laurentian Great Lakes watersheds.

Overcoming taxonomic anxiety in conservation: A roadmap from the idle crayfish case
Abstract Advances in taxonomy often uncover cryptic species nested within already protected taxa, raising concerns about the continuity of legal safeguards. While newly described species are not necessarily disconnected from existing protections, often being treated administratively as part of the original species complex, formal legislative updates ...

Branchiobdellids are small ectosymbiotic annelids living primarily on freshwater crayfish. Because humans frequently translocate crayfish, these symbionts can be co-translocated, with implications for biosecurity and conservation.

Interactions between invasive crayfish and native river shrimp
In the south of Portugal there are only two species of strictly freshwater decapods: the native freshwater shrimp Atyaephyra desmarestii and the exotic crayfish Procambarus clarkii. The aim of this study is to understand if the

ABSTRACT Aim Species Distribution Models (SDMs) are widely used in conservation planning, invasive species management and global change assessments. Their reliability depends on both presence and absence data, yet biodiversity databases are dominated by presence records, while true absences are rarely collected and geographically restricted.

The Effects of Intraspecific Variation of Crayfish Behavior on Nutrient Cycling in Aquatic Environments [PDF]
Human activities are rapidly altering species traits at a global scale. Yet, there remains a critical need to determine whether trait variation within species affects ecosystem responses to global change. In particular, intraspecific variation in feeding
