Genetic data and species distribution modelling highlight the vulnerability of the stone crayfish in Croatia

2022
The stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium) is a native European species endangered by anthropogenically induced alteration of its habitats, climate change and invasive alien crayfish species. Diminishing populations’ trends across its distribution range highlight the importance of developing effective conservation that will ensure its long-term ...

Comparative karyotype investigations in thewhite-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius Pallipes Species Complex) and stone crayfish (a. Torrentium) (Decapoda, Astacidae)

Journal of crustacean biology, 2016
This study reports for the first time on the chromosome number and karyological characteristics of the endangered European freshwater crayfish genus Austropotamobius (Decapoda, Astacidae). The karyotypes of white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes sp. complex) and stone crayfish (A. torrentium) consisted of 2n = 176 chromosomes arranged into 76

Can species delimitation methods help in resolving stone crayfish taxonomy?

2019
Stone crayfish is a freshwater species that inhabits small waterbodies at higher altitudes of central and south-eastern Europe. Previous research revealed that stone crayfish presents genetically highly diverse species, and recently a new crayfish species, formerly considered stone crayfish, was described.

The relationship between female size and egg size in stone crayfish Austropotamobius torrentium

2004
The stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium) is the smallest species in Astacidae family and little is known about its ecology, biology and life cycle so the aim of our research was to gather information about it’ s reproduction cycle. In crayfish reproduction, one of the main factors affecting fecundity is egg size.

Integrating genetics and morphometrics in species conservation – a case study on the stone crayfish, Austropotamobius torrentium

Limnologica, 2017
The stone crayfish, Austropotamobius torrentium, is a freshwater crayfish species native to Central and Southeast Europe. Due to various, mostly anthropogenic factors the species is facing a dramatic decline in many European countries. In order to plan and implement protection measures, it is essential to collect extensive data on the species ...

First insight into genetic structure of stone crayfish populations in Croatia revealed by microsatellite markers

2019
The stone crayfish Austropotamobius torrentium (Schrank, 1803), a freshwater crayfish species with intricate evolutionary history and high genetic diversity, is threatened due to anthropogenic pressure, climate change and spreading of invasive crayfish species and their pathogens.

Distribution and management of the stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium Schrank) in the streams of the Nature Park Medvednica

2015
The stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium (Schrank)) is one of the four native European crayfish species living in Croatian freshwaters. It is considered as an endangered species, mainly due to the various anthropogenic impacts. This species is well adapted to lower water temperature and velocities typical for streams at higher altitudes.

Mitochondrial DNA sequences reveal cryptic diversity within stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium)

2008
A phylogeny of the stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium Schrank, 1803) was constructed using DNA sequence data from the mitochondrial 16S and COI genes. Seventy-five individuals from our crayfish collection sampled between 1995 and 2007 from 38 localities were analyzed along with forty-five additional A.
