- Intra‐population variability of life‐history traits and growth during range expansion of the invasive round goby, Neogobius melanostomus (2012, background): “…(Mitchill) (Hutchings 1993) and pumpkinseed (Bertschy & Fox 1999)], the onset of disease such as viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (OMNR 2008) or the transitioning of predators to include the round goby as a major food source (King et al. 2006; Truemper et al. 2006; Taraborelli et al. 2010).”
- Native predators and exotic prey –an acquired taste? (2009, background): “There are numerous examples of native predators con suming exotic prey; for example, > 90% of the diet of the threatened Lake Erie water snake {Nerodia sipedon insularum) now consists of Eurasian round goby (Neogobius melanostomus), which invaded the Great Lakes in the early 1990s (King et al. 2006)”
- Demography and Substrate Affinity of the Round Goby (Neogobius melanostomus) in Hamilton Harbour (2010, background): “Studies have shown that predators such as smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu), double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus), and water snakes (Nerodia sipedon insularum) have begun to consume round gobies (King et al., 2006; Somers et al., 2003; Steinhart et al., 2004b).”
- Has the invasive round goby caused new links in Baltic food webs? (2010, background): “…piscivorous fish (Pinchuk et al. 2003) and also where introduced in North-America, this species makes up a large part of the diet of many piscivorous native fishes (Truemper et al. 2006; Dietrich et al. 2007; Stapanian et al. 2007), birds (Somers et al. 2003), and snakes (King et al. 2006).”
- Impacts of Invasive Species on Food Webs: A Review of Empirical Data (2017, background): “from Lake Erie seem to draw large benefit from the introduction of gobies, which now make up more than 90% of their diet (King et al., 2006).”
