Alien species in fresh waters: ecological effects, interactions with other stressors, and prospects for the future (2010, background): “They also decimate populations of snails (Lodge et al., 1994; Wilson et al., 2004) and possibly other molluscs (Klocker & Strayer, 2004), and change the abundance and community composition of other benthic macroinvertebrates (McCarthy et al., 2006).”
Winning the biodiversity arms race among freshwater gastropods: competition and coexistence through shell variability and predator avoidance (2010, background): “As discussed above, crayfish as gastropod predators are well documented and are generally known to have omnivorous diets both in their native and non-native ranges (Covich, 1977; Lodge et al., 1994; Nyström et al., 1996; Parkyn et al., 2001; McCarthy et al., 2006; Johnson et al., 2009).”
Understanding the impact of invasive crayfish (2007, methodology): “Few comparative field studies (e.g. Charlebois and Lamberti 1996) and even fewer long-term studies (Wilson et al. 2004, McCarthy et al. 2006) have been conducted to examine the dynamic relationships among organisms, including the prolonged effects of crayfish invaders on native communities over…”
Invasive crayfish in Europe: the impact of Procambarus clarkii on the littoral community of a Mediterranean lake (2007, unknown): “tivity, snails show less resilience in the long term than the other invertebrates and are slow to respond numerically following any reduction in crayfish density (McCarthy et al., 2006).”
Intensive trapping and increased fish predation cause massive population decline of an invasive crayfish (2007, unknown): “Rusty crayfish often reach high densities and alter aquatic systems through direct consumption of macrophytes, benthic invertebrates and fish eggs (Magnuson et al., 1975; Olsen et al., 1991; Wilson et al., 2004; McCarthy et al., 2006; Roth, Hein & Vander Zanden, 2006; Wilson & Hrabik, 2006).”
A review of ecological interactions between crayfish and fish, indigenous and introduced (2011, unknown): “virilis are relatively poorly known (Hobbs et al., 1989; McCarthy et al., 2006) the indigenous signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus was infrequently found where the alien species occurs.”
The rapid spread of rusty crayfish (Orconectes rusticus) with observations on native crayfish declines in Wisconsin (U.S.A.) over the past 130 years (2006, background): “Rusty crayfish Orconectes rusticus (Girard) has proven to be a formidable invader, spreading over the last 40–50 years from its historical range in the Ohio River drainage, to waters throughout much of Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota and parts of 11 other states, Ontario and the Laurent”
Global ecological impacts of invasive species in aquatic ecosystems (2016, background): “This framework is also relevant for environmental practitioners, because distinguishing invaders with minor effects from those with large multilevel effects is critical for guiding management and prevention efforts (McCarthy et al., 2006; Ricciardi et al., 2013).”
Impacts of Biological Invasions on Freshwater Ecosystems (2010, methodology): “…(for example using synthetic tools such as meta - analysis) of the impacts of widespread aquatic invaders such as zebra mussels (Ricciardi 2003 ; Ward & Ricciardi 2007 ), common carp (Matsuzaki et al. 2009 ) and various species of crayfi sh (McCarthy et al. 2006 ; Matsuzaki et al. 2009 ).”
Niche differentiation among invasive crayfish and their impacts on ecosystem structure and functioning (2014, background): “This indicates an amplified impact whereby the presence of both species synergistically increased competition (McCarthy et al., 2006) and/or predator-prey links (Stenroth and Nyström, 2003) with native invertebrate predators resulting in the largest observed negative effect on their abundance…”
Worldwide impact of alien parrots (Aves Psittaciformes) on native biodiversity and environment: a review (2014, background): “This prevented us from performing further statistical analyses, currently used to assess potential impacts of invasive alien species (cf. MCCARTHY et al. 2006; WARD & RICCIARDI 2007; VILÀ et al. 2011; NAGAKAWA & SANTOS 2012), to avoid misinterpretations or misleading outputs.”
Impacts of Dreissena invasions on benthic macroinvertebrate communities: a meta‐analysis (2007, methodology): “…meta-analysis has only just begun to be applied to study invasions (Levine et al., 2004; Agrawal et al., 2005; Parker et al., 2006), and has been used primarily to address questions about species establishment rather than the ecological consequences of invasion (but see McCarthy et al., 2006).”
The perfect invader: a parthenogenic crayfish poses a new threat to Madagascar’s freshwater biodiversity (2009, background): “Invasive crayfish have been shown to have major impacts on stream communities, even where native crayfish already existed (Lodge et al. 1994; McCarthy et al. 2006 ).”
A global meta-analysis of the ecological impacts of nonnative crayfish (2013, background): “Coupled with habitat modification, crayfish predation drives declines in diversity and abundances of native invertebrates (McCarthy et al. 2006, Correia and Anastacio 2008), and reduces amphibian populations through predation on eggs and larvae (Gamradt and Kats 1996, Gamradt et al. 1997).”
