Distribution, drivers and population structure of the invasive alien snail Tarebia granifera in the Luvuvhu system, South Africa [PDF]
Abstract Invasive alien species continue to spread and proliferate in waterways worldwide, but environmental drivers of invasion dynamics lack assessment. Knowledge gaps are pervasive in the Global South, where the frequent heavy human‐modification of rivers provides high opportunity for invasion.

Molecular phylogeography and reproductive biology of the freshwater snail Tarebia granifera in Thailand and Timor (Cerithioidea, Thiaridae): morphological disparity versus genetic diversity [PDF]
The freshwater thiarid gastropod Tarebia granifera (Lamarck, 1816), including taxa considered either congeneric or conspecific by earlier authors, is widespread and abundant in various lentic and lotic water bodies in mainland and insular Southeast Asia,

Exploring the evolutionary potential of parasites: Larval stages of pathogen digenic trematodes in their thiarid snail host Tarebia granifera in Thailand [PDF]
Minute intestinal flukes from several distinct families of endoparasitic platyhelminths are a medically important group of foodborne trematodes prevalent throughout Southeast Asia and Australasia.

The role of gastropods in African swine fever virus ecology [PDF]
The spread of the African swine fever virus (ASF virus) genotype ii in the Eurasian region has been very successful and often inexplicable. The virus spreads rapidly and persists in areas with wild boar populations, but areas without feral pig ...

Three reasons why expanded use of natural enemy solutions may offer sustainable control of human infections. [PDF]
Abstract Many infectious pathogens spend a significant portion of their life cycles in the environment or in animal hosts, where ecological interactions with natural enemies may influence pathogen transmission to people. Yet, our understanding of natural enemy opportunities for human disease control is lacking, despite widespread uptake and success of ...

Effects of river regulation on aquatic invertebrate community composition: A comparative analysis in two southern African rivers. [PDF]
This study compared aquatic invertebrate communities between a regulated and unregulated river and sought to determine whether the largest inland lake of the region, which receives water from both rivers, resembles the aquatic invertebrate communities of either river.

Population structure of an invasive parthenogenetic gastropod in coastal lakes and estuaries of northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. [PDF]
BackgroundEstuaries and coastal lakes receive little attention despite being heavily invaded by non-indigenous invasive species (NIS). In these situations, studies of population dynamics in invaded habitats can provide valuable insights into how NIS ...

A Method for Conveying Confidence in iNaturalist Observations: A Case Study Using Non-Native Marine Species. [PDF]
Data quality, reliability and accuracy have long been recognised as barriers to unlocking the full potential of citizen science derived data. This study developed a score to assign confidence in iNaturalist observations and streamline the verification process.

Gastropods alien to South Africa cause severe environmental harm in their global alien ranges across habitats. [PDF]
This study assesses global impacts of alien gastropods using two novel impact scoring schemes to compare impact severity between species, as well as environmental and socioeconomic impacts, and to understand how impacts relate to habitats, impact mechanisms, and life‐history traits.
