Review and new records of non-indigenous freshwater invertebrates in the Ebro River basin (Northeast Spain) (2010, unknown): “Amat et al. (2005) suggest that exotic A. franciscana populations originate as intentional or nonintentional inoculations through aquacultural (hatchery) effluents or via pet market activities, whereas Gherardi et al. (2008) suggest that its introduction in Italy was intentional.”
Unintentional dispersal of aquatic invertebrates via footwear and motor vehicles in a Mediterranean wetland area (2010, background): “parthenogenetica (Amat et al., 2005) in the Camargue salt pans near Salin de Giraud and Aiges Mortes.”
Artemia sites in Iran (2006, background): “According to a very recent bibliography, A. franciscana has proven a very successful colonizer, which out-competes the endemic Old World bisexuals or parthenogens (Amat et al., 2005).”
Biodiversity loss in the genus Artemia in the Western Mediterranean Region (2007, background): “Polyploid Artemia strains are usually spread in continental, as well as in high latitudinal, hypersaline environments, although they have been recently found in solar salterns in Northern Africa (Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia).”
Dispersal of invasive and native brine shrimps Artemia (Anostraca) via waterbirds (2005, background): “Of nine saltworks studied on the main East Atlantic Flyway west of Gibraltar since 1993 (Amat et al. 2005; authors unpubl.)”
