Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Understanding whether invasive species retain or shift their ecological niches has relied on scalar overlap metrics that quantify the magnitude of niche change but not its structure. Here, we test whether biological invasions involve a reorganisation of the environmental axes along which native and invasive ranges are differentiated, and ...

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic EcosystemsSymbionts, including parasites, are usually small and thus have been overlooked for their existence and scientific research. In the context of biological invasion, host shifts between native and non-native species occur. Since symbionts often affect host

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Invasive alien mussels threaten freshwater ecosystems worldwide by disrupting food webs and nutrient cycling. The effective monitoring of these populations is therefore essential to assess their spread and ecological impacts. This study demonstrates the applicability of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods to monitor the reproductive periods of ...

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2001 Since 1893, crayfish plague, Aphanomyces astaci Schikora, has devastated Finland’s most productive populations of the native noble crayfish, Astacus astacus, causing great losses to once very valuable fisheries and exports.

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Ecologies, 2022 Invasive crayfish are among the major threats to freshwater ecosystems, with the signal crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus, being one of the most successful crayfish invaders in Europe.

Artificial light at night and invasive signal crayfish alter aquatic‐terrestrial food webs
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1740-1754, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Resource flows across aquatic‐terrestrial boundaries are increasingly affected by multiple stressors, such as artificial light at night (ALAN) and aquatic invasive species, which can alter the availability of resources for consumers.

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.Biological and geomorphic effects have been treated independently in fluvial geomorphology. Flume experiments with burrowing crayfish show that interactions between these drivers do more geomorphic work than the sum of their maximum independent parts combined, meaning total biogeomorphic effects to rivers are likely underestimated.

The role of mitophagy during hematopoiesis in an invertebrate , Pacifastacus leniusculus
The Journal of ImmunologyAbstract Freshwater crayfish as most aquatic crustaceans live for up to 20–30 years on the bottom of lakes and rivers, constantly exposed to millions of microorganisms. Consequently, they must have an effective immune system to combat and eliminate pathogens.

Signatures of Wild Animal Life in Earth's Landscapes
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Animals shape Earth surface processes and landforms by displacing Earth surface materials and by making them more or less susceptible to geophysical processes. Despite increased recognition of the global significance of animal landscape “signatures”, analysis of their magnitude and generality has not been possible until now.
