Landscape features correlate with spatial distribution of red-swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in a network of ponds

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
The red-swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii has become the most cosmopolitan freshwater crayfish species in the world as a result of numerous intentional and accidental introductions.

Inventory of the Decapod Crustaceans (Crayfishes and Shrimps) of Arkansas with a Discussion of Their Habitats [PDF]

, 1980
The freshwater decapod crustaceans of Arkansas presently consist of two species of shrimps and 51 taxa of crayfishes divided into 47 species and four subspecies. The shrimps are represented by Macrobranchium ohione and Palaemonetes kadiakensis.

Field Survey of Freshwater Invertebrates Reveals That Several Groups Are Potential Carriers of the Fungal Pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The amphibian disease chytridiomycosis, caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has devastated global amphibian biodiversity. The specific reasons for its rapid global spread, especially to pristine areas, are not well understood. Freshwater invertebrates might function as carriers of Bd, but the diversity and extent

Tracking the invasion of the red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii (Girard, 1852) (Decapoda Cambaridae) in Sicily: a “citizen science” approach

Biogeographia, 2017
The first record of the red swamp crayfish in Sicily dates back to 2003 and, since then, the species seemed to be confined to a few localities in western Sicily. A small “citizen science” project carried out from November 2016 onwards led to the creation

Comparative transcriptomics analyses of chemosensory genes of antenna in male red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, is a globally invasive species and has caused huge damage to aquaculture, biodiversity, and ecology worldwide. Antenna-expressed receptors are important for P.

Identifying knowledge gaps about context dependency in freshwater species invasions

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
The abiotic template of freshwater ecosystems is being altered by human activity on a global scale, often promoting the establishment of new invasive taxa and increasing the likelihood of facilitation between invaders. These positive interactions represent a substantive threat to freshwater ecosystems by promoting the establishment and persistence of ...

Crayfish feeding preferences for fresh water macrophytes: The influence of plant structure and chemistry [PDF]

, 2002
The omnivorous crayfish Procambarus clarkii fed selectively on several species of macrophytes, preferring delicate fresh plants that had filamentous or finely-branched architectures.

Investigation of the gut microbiome community, abundance, and functions of Procambarus clarkii under different aquaculture conditions

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract To examine the gut microbial composition and functional attributes of red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) across different rearing environments, this experiment employed high‐throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene of bacterial DNA isolated from the gut.

Molecular Characterisation of Endangered White‐Clawed Crayfish Populations in Southern Switzerland

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the phylogeography of the endangered European White‐Clawed Crayfish (WCC) Austropotamobius pallipes species complex in the main tributaries of the Po River basin in southern Switzerland and northern Italy, a diversity hotspot for this species.
