Neuronal Pathways and Synaptic Connexions in the Abdominal Cord of the Crayfish [PDF]

, 1959
1. An investigation has been made into the function and distribution of nerve fibres in the abdominal ganglion chain and its roots in the crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, by leading off action potentials from small prepared bundles following sensory ...

Phylogenetically‐Informed Crayfish Conservation in the Face of Climate Change

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Crayfish are a vital part of freshwater ecosystems, yet one third of assessed species are threatened with extinction, and almost 90% are highly sensitive to climate change. In this study, we produced a phylogenetically‐informed species prioritisation for crayfish conservation and explored the impacts of projected climate change scenarios on crayfish ...

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Acute toxicity of two pyrethroid insecticides for five non-indigenous crayfish species in Europe

Veterinární Medicína, 2019
Pyrethroid insecticides are highly toxic to many aquatic organisms. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of the commercial products Cyperkill 25 EC (active compound 250 g/l cypermethrin) and Decis Mega (active compound 50 g/l deltamethrin ...

Overcoming taxonomic anxiety in conservation: A roadmap from the idle crayfish case

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Advances in taxonomy often uncover cryptic species nested within already protected taxa, raising concerns about the continuity of legal safeguards. While newly described species are not necessarily disconnected from existing protections, often being treated administratively as part of the original species complex, formal legislative updates ...

Characteristics and movement patterns of a recently established invasive Pacifastacus leniusculus population in the river Mura, Croatia

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011
The presence of the signal crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus, in waterbodies of Europe is of high concern due to its potentially major ecological impact on invaded ecosystems and native crayfish.

Warming and latitude shape the non-consumptive effects of native and invasive alien crayfish predators on damselfly prey [PDF]

NeoBiota
There is increasing concern that the effects of biological invasions may be magnified by other human-induced global changes. Here, we compare the non-consumptive effects imposed by invasive vs.

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Growth and population dynamics of crayfish Paranephrops planifrons in streams within native forest and pastoral land uses [PDF]

, 2002
Population dynamics of crayfish (Paranephrops planifrons White) in streams draining native forest and pastoral catchments, Waikato, New Zealand, were investigated from September 1996 to July 1998.
