River Connectivity in Dammed Areas Studied Through Environmental DNA Metabarcoding at Community and Species Levels

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The field of environmental DNA (eDNA) is rapidly expanding with established applications in biodiversity monitoring, rare species detection and ecological assessment. However, its potential to evaluate species connectivity in fragmented aquatic systems remains underexplored.

New data on the introduction of the invasive signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana, 1852) (Crustacea, Decapoda) and ectosymbiont branchiobdellidans (Annelida, Clitellata) in NW Iberian Peninsula

, 2017
The non-native signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana, 1852) has successfully been established in many catchments of Europe, causing detrimental impacts on both native flora and fauna.

A STUDY ON THE POSSIBLE EFFECT OF TWO CRAYFISH SPECIES ON EPILITHIC ALGAE IN A MOUNTAIN STREAM FROM CENTRAL SPAIN

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2006
The effects on epilithic algae of increasing densities of two crayfish species, Austropotamobius italicus and Pacifastacus leniusculus, the latter recently introduced in Spain, have been monitored using riverine enclosures, within a large experimental ...

A gC1qR prevents white spot syndrome virus replication in the freshwater crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus.

J Virol, 2010
The gC1qR/p32 protein is a multiple receptor for several proteins and pathogens. We cloned a gC1qR homologue in a crustacean, Pacifastacus leniusculus , and analyzed the expression of P. leniusculus C1qR (

Impact of the Highly Invasive Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) on Freshwater Macroinvertebrate Communities

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive non‐native species threaten freshwater ecosystems, disrupting the functioning and structure of the food chain and potentially leading to biodiversity loss. As omnivores, crayfish can modify their environment, directly affecting organisms such as macroinvertebrates.

DISTRIBUTION OF INDIGENOUS AND NON-INDIGENOUS CRAYFISH POPULATIONS IN THE POITOU-CHARENTES REGION (FRANCE): EVOLUTION OVER THE PAST 25 YEARS

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2006
Subsequent surveys carried out from 1978 to 2003 demonstrated a high disappearance of Austropotamobius pallipes populations from the region and the alarming spread of non-indigenous species like Procambarus clarkii and Pacifastacus leniusculus ...
