The significance of chelae in the agonistic behaviour of the white‐clawed crayfish,a Ustropotamobius pallipes

Marine and Freshwater Behaviour and Physiology, 2000
As in other benthic decapods, crayfish have chelae that are important for intra‐specific agonistic encounters. In Austropotamobius pallipes, scars and mutilations are present mostly on the chelae, these being the main targets of agonistic contacts. Because males participate in more aggressive interactions than females do and compete with other males ...

Use of Ephemeroptera as bioindicators of the occurrence of white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes)

Hydrobiologia, 2011
Currently, the distribution of the European native white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes) is restricted, fragmented and mainly located in headwater streams. Many European countries have active programmes for its conservation and some also have reintroduction programmes.

Annual variability in reproduction of the white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes): implications for survival

Acta Oecologica, 2007
The white-clawed crayfish is generally considered as an endangered species and it is necessary to estimate the functioning quality in residual population patches, particularly reproduction. For six consecutive years, a population was studied in a forest brook in Normandy (France). The size, state of maturity, density and egg number in mature females as

Successful storage and transport of eggs of the white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes Lereboullet)

Aquaculture International, 2001
Embryonated eggs of theEuropean native white-clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes Lereboullet weresubjected to three periods of storage usingpolystyrene boxes and, afterwards, artificiallyincubated. At the end of the longest storage(42 days) survival rate was 98.3%, with 65%developed to stage 2 juvenile.

Chronic Aphanomyces astaci infection in wild white-clawed crayfish: risks and implications for breeding programs

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology
Aphanomyces astaci is the oomycete responsible for crayfish plague, a disease with devastating effects on susceptible crayfish populations across Eurasia. Recently, low virulence strains of this oomycete, mostly belonging to genetic group A, have been reported to coexist with European crayfish species.

Geographical variation of mitochondrial DNA between populations of the white‐clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes

Freshwater Biology, 1997
1. The white‐clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes has a widespread distribution in Europe, but since the last century its distribution has been severely affected by a combination of factors, particularly the disease crayfish plague, introduced by foreign crayfish species. At present A.

Mitochondrial DNA variation and population genetic structure of the white-clawed crayfish, Austropotamobius pallipes pallipes

Conservation Genetics, 2000
Here we report a high level of mtDNA variationfrom RFLP analysis within A. p. pallipes from 21 French and 4British populations. Seventeen haplotypes were recorded among 269individuals. Nucleotide sequence divergence (p) among mtDNAhaplotypes ranged from 0.0019 to 0.0425.

Phylogenetic position of white-clawed crayfish from the east Adriatic coast

2010
The white-clawed crayfish (Austropotamobius pallipes (Lereboullet)) is a native European freshwater crayfish inhabiting Croatian freshwater habitats. It is naturally distributed in the Adriatic Sea drainage, while in Europe it is found in its southern and western parts, including British Isles.
