Maturation of spinal motor control through developmental changes in ion currents
Abstract figure legend Ion channels of spinal neurons have been shown to change during development in a wide range of species. These changes occur at specific stages of development. An important developmental process is the maturation of motor control by which the body acquires new movements or refines movements already present.

Freshwater fish and crayfish communities of the Carbunup and Buayanyup Rivers: conservation significance and management considerations [PDF]
This study is the first to examine the fish and freshwater crayfish of the Carbunup and Buayanyup Rivers, south-western Australia. It aimed to determine the distribution of the fishes and freshwater crayfishes, their conservation significance and ...

Invasive alien crayfish pose significant threats to biodiversity in aquatic ecosystems. In isolated water bodies they impact local amphibian populations by predation, and altering water quality due to burrowing behaviour.

ABSTRACT Relieving barriers and increasing free flowing rivers is a global imperative to restore habitat connectivity for migratory fish stocks. While reducing river fragmentation will certainly improve biodiversity, the spread of non‐native species throughout a river system may be facilitated as an inadvertent outcome.

ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

Co-occurrence between signal crayfish and italian native crayfish: How long yet?
In the first Italian stream invaded by signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) since 2009, we found a relict population of native white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes) in the headwater of the same stream.

Baseline study on the fish and freshwater crayfish fauna in the Blackwood River and its tributaries receiving discharge from the Yarragadee Aquifer [PDF]
Water from the Yarragadee Aquifer surfaces in Poison Gully and Milyeannup Brook, and maintains flow in these Blackwood River tributaries throughout the year. It also enters Layman Brook during winter and spring, yet this stream dries during summer.
