Insight into the noble crayfish morphological diversity: a geometric morphometric approach [PDF]
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2022 The noble crayfish (Astacus astacus), a keystone species of high ecological, economic, and cultural importance in Europe, is threatened due to a long-term population decline caused by anthropogenic pressure on its habitats, the presence of non-indigenous
