The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The role of behavior in the success of invasive crustaceans (2010, background): “The studies of MacDonald et al. (2007) indicated that native blue crabs (C. sapidus), despite their aggressiveness and tendency to start antagonistic interactions, tended to lose in feeding competitions with green crabs.”
Invasion biology of the Chinese mitten crab Eriochier sinensis: a brief review. (2009, background): “But two other invasive crabs (Carcinus maenas, Hemigrapsus sanguineus) are well established on the east coast, and each has had negative effects on populations of native crab species (Grosholz et al., 2000; Jensen et al., 2002; Lohrer and Whitlatch, 2002; MacDonald et al., 2007).”
Life History and Population Dynamics of Green Crabs (Carcinus maenas) (2019, background): “gracilis absent in traps set high in the intertidal but the reverse was true for traps set in the low intertidal and subtidal areas, suggesting that these two species are showing niche segregation to avoid interactions [304].”
Invasive alien Crustacea: dispersal, establishment, impact and control (2011, background): “Rathbun, an ecologically and commercially important native species (MacDonald et al. 2007).”
