Predatory decapods for biological control of pest snails: Ecological, behavioural and mechanical aspects

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
A food‐choice experiment illustrating that monosex decapods can serve as efficient biological control agents against parasite‐transmitting snails in aquaculture systems. We presented prawns and crayfish to four pest snail species with varying shell characteristics and quantified their predation preferences and traits. We show that the force required to

Removing invasive stream macrofauna shifts nontarget invertebrate mesofauna through facilitation

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Positive interactions among non‐native species can drive invasional meltdowns to the detriment of native biota. Here, we assessed whether targeted control of aquatic invasive species (AIS) can benefit native species by eliminating synergies among invaders.
