Signal crayfish burrowing, bank retreat and sediment supply to rivers: A biophysical sediment budget
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.5070
Abstract: Burrowing into riverbanks by animals transfers sediment directly into river channels and has been hypothesised to accelerate bank erosion and promote mass failure. A field monitoring study on two UK rivers invaded by signal crayfish… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.limno.2017.02.003
Abstract: Abstract The signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana, 1852) is a native species to North America. It was introduced to Europe and Japan where it rapidly spread as an invasive species. In Croatia, it is recorded… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.limno.2018.11.003
Abstract: Abstract Ecosystems increasingly face concurrent invasions by multiple species, but knowledge about relationships among invasive species is under studied. We examined agonistic encounters among signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus, marbled crayfish Procambarus virginalis, and the common… read more here.

Size-mediated, density-dependent cannibalism in the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana, 1852) (Decapoda, Astacidea), an invasive crayfish in Britain

DOI: 10.1163/15685403-00003653
Abstract: The role of cannibalism in crayfish populations is not well understood, despite being a potentially key density-dependent process underpinning population dynamics. We studied the incidence of cannibalism in an introduced signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus population… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4176680
Abstract: Diphenhydramine (DPH) is a pharmaceutical with multiple modes of action, primarily designed as an antihistamine therapeutic drug. Among antihistamines, DPH is a significant contaminant in the environment, frequently detected in surface waters, sediments, and tissues… read more here.

Management of invasive, plague-carrying signal crayfish by physical exclusion barriers
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Management of Biological Invasions"
DOI: 10.3391/mbi.2022.13.1.09
Abstract: Invasive, plague-carrying signal crayfish represent a significant threat to imperiled European crayfishes. In the absence of a feasible eradication technique, physical barriers that separate invasive from native crayfish populations have been suggested as management strategy.… read more here.
