Ukrainian Journal of Ecology, 2018 Abundance and biomass of the invasive thiarid snails such as Melanoides tuberculata (Muller, 1774) and Tarebia granifera (Lamarck, 1822) were studied in conditions of the cooling pond of Zaporizka NPP (Nuclear Power Plant) in autumn, 2017. The total biomass of M. tuberculata and T. granifera averaged 12.39 g/m 2 in the cooling pond and

Biological InvasionsAbstract Invasive species pose a significant threat to global freshwater biodiversity. The invasive snail Tarebia granifera has been reported to exploit microphytobenthos and detritus, potentially exercising a greater feeding impact compared to other invertebrates. Despite its presence in several important conservation regions in the country,

Three reasons why expanded use of natural enemy solutions may offer sustainable control of human infections. [PDF]
People Nat (Hoboken), 2022 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]
Ecol EvolThis 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.

A Method for Conveying Confidence in iNaturalist Observations: A Case Study Using Non-Native Marine Species. [PDF]
Ecol EvolData 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]
Ecol Evol, 2018 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.

Identifying potential emerging invasive non‐native species from the freshwater pet trade
People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1948-1961, December 2023., 2023 Abstract An increasingly globalised world has facilitated the movement of non‐native species (NNS) via the poorly regulated international pet trade. While focus is increasingly being placed on preventative action to combat invasive NNS—often cheaper and less difficult than the management of established populations—successful prevention requires ...
