Distribution of the Invasive Caprellid Caprellascaura (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Cádiz Marina, Southern Spain: Implications for its Dispersal
(Universidade de Vigo * Servizo de Publicacions, 2016)
The invasive caprellid Caprella scaura Templeton, 1836 is rapidly spreading along marinas of Southern Spain, becoming one of the dominant species of the macrofoulers associated to bryozoans and hydroids of communities in ...

Colonization Dynamics of Potential Stowaways Inhabiting Marinas: Lessons from Caprellid Crustaceans
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022)
Despite the fact that stowaway transport is an increasingly common invasion pathway, its key ecological aspects, such as colonization dynamics of potential invaders on human transport vectors, are poorly understood. ...

The tropical caprellid amphipod Paracaprella pusilla: a new alien crustacean in the Mediterranean Sea
(BMC, 2013)
Paracaprella pusilla Mayer (Fauna und Flora des Golfes von Neapel 17:1–55, 1890), originally described from Brazil, is one of the most abundant caprellid amphipod species in tropical and subtropical seas around the world. ...

Long-distance dispersal, low connectivity and molecular evidence of a new cryptic species in the obligate rafter Caprella andreae Mayer, 1890 (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Caprellidae)
(BMC, 2013)
The amphipod Caprella andreae Mayer, 1890 was recorded for the first time in Southern Iberian Peninsula (36440 1500N, 3590 3800W). This species is the only obligate rafter of the suborder Caprellidea and has been reported ...

Leakage of plastics and other debris from landfills to a highly protected lake by wintering gulls
(Elsevier, 2024-04-01)
General context Gulls ingest plastic and other litter while foraging in open landfills, because organic matter is mixed with other debris. Therefore, gulls are potential biovectors of plastic pollution into natural habitats, ...

Mediterranean Marine Science
(National Centre for Marine Research, 2023-12-12)
Studies of non-indigenous species (NIS) often tend to focus on medium and large-sized taxa with potential for remarkable ecological and/or economic impact, whereas the early detection of small invertebrates is often delayed ...

Patrones de variación espacial de las comunidades intermareales de la Isla de Tarifa (Cádiz)
(Cádiz Fundación Migres, 2011)
El ecosistema mediolitoral se encuentra muy deteriorado en la mayor parte de la costa andaluza debido a la facilidad de acceso y la consiguiente presión humana. Sin embargo, la Isla de Tarifa refleja un estado de excelente ...

The Tanaidacea challenge to invasion science: taxonomic ambiguities and small size result in another potential overlooked introduction to the Iberian coast and nearby areas
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2023-11-08)
A major challenge in invasion science is detecting overlooked introductions, their pathways of introduction and spread. One of the most successful introduced taxa in aquatic ecosystems are peracarid crustaceans. There are ...

Biovectoring of plastic by white storks from a landfill to a complex of salt ponds and marshes
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
Research into plastic pollution has extensively focused on abiotic vectors, overlooking transport by animals. Opportunistic birds, such as white storks (Ciconia ciconia) often forage on landfills, where plastic abounds. ...
