Understanding the impact of invasive crayfish (2007, background): “…and trophic diversity shown in the gut contents of a naturalized P. clarkii population in Portugal denoted that a wide variety of aquatic macroinvertebrates is consumed by this species and that the specific composition of the prey changes according to its seasonal availability (Correia 2002).”
Invasive crayfish in Europe: the impact of Procambarus clarkii on the littoral community of a Mediterranean lake (2007, unknown): “…hydrophytes, periphyton and pelagic/surface microalgae (e.g. Lodge & Lorman, 1987; Charlebois & Lamberti, 1996; Nyström & Strand, 1996; Gutiérrez-Yurrita et al., 1998; Nyström & Pérez, 1998; Nyström et al., 2001; Correia, 2002; Cronin et al., 2002; Gherardi & Lazzara, 2006).”
Red swamp crayfish: biology, ecology and invasion - an overview (2015, unknown): “2) (Huner and Barr, 1991; Ilhéu and Bernardo, 1993; 1995; Gutiérrez-Yurrita et al., 1998; 1999; Parkyn et al., 2001; Correia, 2002; Buck et al., 2003; Cruz and Rebelo, 2005).”
Food choice by the introduced crayfi sh Procambarus clarkii (2003, background): “In fact, Correia (2002) found that, in rice fi elds, P. clarkii adjusted its trophic behaviour to the availability of aquatic macroinvertebrates.”
Loss of diversity and degradation of wetlands as a result of introducing exotic crayfish (2005, background): “…of the increased densities of autochthonous and exotic freshwater crayfish have been repeatedly documented in studies on the trophic role of these species in streams and lakes (Hanson et al. 1990; Lodge et al. 1994; Nyström and Perez 1998; Nyström et al. 2001; Correia 2002, amongst others).”
A global meta-analysis of the ecological impacts of nonnative crayfish (2013, background): “For example, P. clarkii consumes macroinvertebrates in proportion to their seasonal availability in rice fields of Portugal (Correia 2002) and supplements this diet with vegetative material when macroinvertebrates are scarce (Correia 2003).”
