Stomach contents from invasive American bullfrogs Rana catesbeiana (= Lithobates catesbeianus) on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]

, 2013
Invasive alien American bullfrog populations are commonly identified as a pernicious influence on the survival of native species due to their adaptability, proliferation and consequent ecological impacts through competition and predation. However, it has

Characterising dispersal and potential impacts of non‐native red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) populations in the coastal plain region of the pee Dee River basin, U.S.A.

Freshwater Biology
Non‐native species can spread rapidly through aquatic ecosystems in association with both natural and anthropogenic mechanisms, but the relative importance of these two mechanisms in determining the spread of a species is not always clear.

Different invasibility of permanent and temporary waterbodies in a semiarid Mediterranean Island [PDF]

, 2019
Nonindigenous species (NIS) represent a threat to aquatic biodiversity worldwide. However, freshwater ecosystems in drylands are potentially more prone to biological invasions than those located in temperate regions because of the higher number of ...

Cu accumulation, detoxification and tolerance in the red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Copper is an essential metal but potentially toxic to aquatic animals at high levels. The present study investigated physiologically adaptive responses to waterborne Cu2+ exposure (0, 0.03, 0.30, 3.00 mg/L) in a representative species of crustaceans, the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) for 7 d, followed by a 7-d depuration period.

A comparative study of predation rhythms on cladocerans by juvenile invasive crayfish and native shrimp

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
The red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii is one of the most widely distributed invasive species in the world. Effects of juvenile crayfish (< 5 cm in body length) in lake ecosystems remain largely unknown, despite that they have a great potential of

Microhabitat use by the white-clawed crayfish in a Tuscan stream. [PDF]

, 2008
Habitat modification, pollution, overfishing, poaching, competition from nonindigenous species, and diseases have led to the extinction in Europe of many populations of indigenous crayfish.

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
