This review provides summary of recent research on their dietary habits, age and growth, phylogenetic lineages and gene diversity. The principal food of all three species is invertebrates, and more rarely fish, which depends on the type of habitat, part of the year, as well as the morphological characteristics of species. According to the von Bertalanffy growth model, size at age is specific for the region, but due to its disadvantages it is necessary to test other growth models. Phylogenetic Keywords: analysis of monkey goby and round goby indicates separation between the European river systems Black Sea and the Caspian Sea haplotypes. The greatest genetic diversity is Invasive gobies found among populations of the Black Sea, and the lowest among European Ecology invaders.

Keywords: shorebird, Slender-billed Curlew, Numenius tenuirostris, endangered species, Danube delta, Ukraine. Despite the hard work of the world conservation community to study the Slender-billed Curlew Numenius tenuirostris, discover its nesting sites and bring it back from the brink of extinction, it still remains a mystery bird. Currently, it is one of the rarest birds of the Old World and is critically endangered. Therefore, any information about recent records is of vital importance. Here, I report on the status of the species at one of its most important migrating stopover sites, the Danube delta, where promising observations were made in 2003 and 2004. As a consequence, plans are being made for follow-up studies and conservation activities.

Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of Russian Academy of Sciences, Leninsky Prospect 33, Moscow 119071, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (DPK), [email protected] (AAK) Abstract: Reliable species identification is critical for detection and monitoring of biological inva- sions. In this study, we propose four sets of primers for efficient amplification of several loci, in- cluding the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase-c (COI) subunit I gene which is a basis for DNA barcoding. This set of primers gives a shorter product which can be used in high-throughput se- quencing systems for metabarcoding purposes. Another mitochondrial locus encoding the large ribosomal subunit (16S) may be useful to study the population structure and as an additional source of information in the metabarcoding of communities. We propose to use a set of primers for the nuclear locus of the small ribosomal subunit (18S) as a positive control and to verify the results of the barcoding. Our proposed sets of primers demonstrate a high amplification efficiency and a high specificity both for freshwater alien and indigenous fishes.
