On the risk of extinction of a wild plant species through spillover of a biological control agent: analysis of an ecosystem compartment model [PDF]

Invasive plant species can be controlled by introducing one or more of their natural enemies (herbivores) from their native range; however such introduction entails the risk that the introduced natural enemy will attack indigenous plant species in the ...

DNA barcoding reveals an extensive number of cryptic introductions of bladed Bangiales (Rhodophyta) in the Southern North Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science
Using a DNA barcoding approach, we document an extensive number of inter-species cryptic introductions of bladed Bangiales (Pyropia) at an historic oyster aquaculture site in the Southern North Sea.

Continental-wide distribution of crayfish species in Europe: update and maps

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2014
Recently published astacological studies substantially improved available data on distribution of crayfish in various European regions. At the same time, spread of invasive species has been recorded, additional non-indigenous species became established ...

The effect of trait choice on hybrid species distribution model projections under climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) have been increasingly combined with thermal performance data to enhance their transferability and to provide a physiological explanation for the predicted geographic patterns. Yet, while it is widely acknowledged that thermal sensitivities may vary among biological traits, it remains largely unexplored to what extent

Macroinvertebrates Associated with Macroalgae within Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) in Earthen Ponds: Potential for Accessory Production

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The present work aims to evaluate the macroinvertebrate community associated with macroalgae in earthen pond systems to better understand their potential in detritus recycling and as an accessory production. Sampling took place on the settling pond of an
