As Alien Species Hotspot: First Data About Rhithropanopeus Harrisii (Crustacea, Panopeidae) J
Transitional Waters Bulletin TWB, Transit.

To date, in the Livorno port, twenty alien species have been recorded, fifteen of which are established. 2 - Presence, abundance, size and sex ratio of the mud crab Rhithropanopeus harrisii, a newly introduced invasive species, have been assessed in six sampling stations along the brackish-water canals between Pisa and Livorno towns. Samplings were carried out in summer and fall 2013. 3 - R. harrisii appeared fully established in the majority of the sampling stations. Reproduction occurs between May and July and sex ratio varied between reproductive and post-reproductive period, with females more abundant before the reproduction. 4 - Individuals of R. harrisii were more abundant in stations close to Livorno port, whereas they were scarce or sporadic in the northernmost stations, close to the main flow of the Arno River. 5 - Due to the high invasive potential of R. harrisii, a closer monitoring of brackish-water environments along the north-western Italian coast is needed, in order to assess and prevent further invasions. -

The scale similarity is examined by using a taxonomic metrics based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence and a related index of similarity. 2 - Data were collected monthly during one year in four dominant habitat types, which were classified on the basis of main physiognomic traits (type of vegetation and anthropogenic impact). Three of the selected habitats were natural (macroalgal beds, bare sediment and Phragmitetum) and one anthropogenically modified (the licensed area for Manila clam farming). Each habitat was sampled in a variable number of stations representative of specific microhabitats, with three replicates each. 3 - Of the 47 taxa identified, only few species were found exclusively in one habitat type, with low densities. -

There is a higher trend of NIS richness going from east to west in the Mediterranean. NIS richness in marinas is mainly influenced by proximity to other major vectors. NIS similarities between marinas are more influenced by environmental factors. The Suez Canal exerts a very strong influence for NIS in Mediterranean marinas. *Manuscript Click here to view linked References 1 2 3 1.

Abstract: The factors involved in promoting long life are extremely intriguing from a human perspective. In part by confronting our own mortality, we have a desire to understand why some organisms live for centuries and others only a matter of days or weeks. What are the factors involved in promoting long life? Not only are questions of lifespan significant from a human perspective, but they are also important from a paleontological one. Most studies of evolution in the fossil record examine changes in the size and the shape of organisms through time. Size and shape are in part a function of life history parameters like lifespan and growth rate, but so far little work has been done on either in the fossil record. The shells of bivavled mollusks may provide an avenue to do just that. Bivalves, much like trees, record their size at each year of life in their shells. In other words, bivalve shells record not only lifespan, but also growth rate. -
