During 2009 it was found throughout most of the Shannon River Navigation (~250km) occurring in swarms at estimated densities of ~6 per litre in shallows and in lower densities at depths of ~20m where its distribution overlaps with the native Mysis salemaai. Broods were found from March to September. It occurs mainly in lakes but small numbers were found at one river site. In summer, shallow- water specimens were found only during the night but in winter could be captured in daytime. It is not known by what means the species arrived in Ireland, or when.

  • The Aquatic Glacial Relict Fauna of Norway – an Update of Distribution and Conservation Status
    Fauna norvegica 2016 Vol. 36: 51-65. The aquatic glacial relict fauna of Norway – an update of distribution and conservation status Ingvar Spikkeland1, Björn Kinsten2, Gösta Kjellberg3, Jens Petter Nilssen4 and Risto Väinölä5 Spikkeland I, Kinsten B, Kjellberg G, Nilssen JP, Väinölä R. 2016. The aquatic glacial relict fauna of Norway – an update of distribution and conservation status. Fauna norvegica 36: 51-65. The aquatic “glacial relict” fauna in Norway comprises a group of predominantly cold-water animals, mainly crustaceans, which immigrated during or immediately after the deglaciation when some of the territory was still inundated by water. Their distribution is mainly confined to lakes in the SE corner of the country, east of the Glomma River in the counties of Akershus, Østfold and Hedmark. We review the history and current status of the knowledge on this assemblage and of two further similarly distributed copepod species, adding new observations from the last decades, and notes on taxonomical changes and conservation status. By now records of original populations of these taxa have been made in 42 Norwegian lakes. Seven different species are known from Lake Store Le/Foxen on the Swedish border, whereas six species inhabit lakes Femsjøen, Øymarksjøen and Rødenessjøen, and five are found in Aspern, Aremarksjøen and in the largest Norwegian lake, Mjøsa. From half of the localities only one of the species is known. The most common species are Mysis relicta (s.str.), Pallaseopsis quadrispinosa and Limnocalanus macrurus. Some populations may have become extirpated recently due to eutrophi- cation, acidification or increased fish predation. Apart from the main SE Norwegian distribution, some lakes of Jæren, SW Norway, also harbour relict crustaceans, which is puzzling.

    MYSIS DILUVIANA IN THE GREAT LAKES: HISTORIC DRIVERS OF ABUNDANCE AND PRODUCTION, AND CURRENT STATUS IN LAKE ONTARIO A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science by Toby Joseph Holda August 2017 © 2017 Toby Joseph Holda ABSTRACT Mysis diluviana are small, shrimp-like crustaceans native to the Laurentian Great Lakes, where they are important as planktivores and as prey for fish. Therefore, our understanding of offshore Great Lakes food webs requires an understanding of M. diluviana population dynamics in these systems. In this thesis, I review the factors observed to influence the abundance, life history, and production of M. diluviana in the Great Lakes, and report recent status (2013) in Lake Ontario, including the first production estimate since 1995. In Lake Ontario in 2013, M. diluviana abundance, biomass, and production were less than 50% of values in the 1990s, but age-0 growth rate and age-1 fecundity were higher. These results suggest food limitation was not the cause of the observed declines in abundance in the late 1990s. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Toby Holda was born in Chicago, Illinois where took a special interest in fish, fishing, aquatic organisms, and science before graduating high school in 2009. He then attended the College of DuPage until 2011, when he transferred to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. There, he was an active member of the university American Fisheries Society (AFS) subunit, and participated in undergrad research in the Cáceres and Wahl labs. He completed the degree for Bachelor of Science in Natural Resources and Environmental Sciences in the spring of 2013.
