The signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana, 1852) (Crustacea, Decapoda) is threatening the near future of Margaritifera margaritifera Linnaeus, 1758 (Bivalvia, Unionoida) in the Negro River (NW Zamora, Spain)
We studied the incidence of the signal crayfish on a population of Margaritifera margaritifera in the Negro River (Zamora, Spain) during the summers of 2019 to 2022. The incidence of predation was assessed as a mortality factor in relation to floods and the hydrology of the river. The crayfish were trapped in a small plot of high pearl mussels density monitored since 2002, and collected each summer since 2019, during which time their abundance increased (65 % in three years). Simultaneously, we counted the shells carried by the floods to the gravel riverbanks. The incidence of floods was stable between 2019 and 2022 (10.3 % to 19.4 % of mortality), while at the bottom of the river the mortality of pearl mussels increased due to predation from 2.7 % to 43.3 %. During the 2022 dry season, 29 pearl mussels that had recently died and whose shell edges were widely gnawed by crayfishes were collected from the plot. The shells appeared bitten only in the contour exposed above the gravel, ruling out the possibility that the marks could be the effect of the scavenging of dead specimens by the crayfish. Low intensity trapping barely affected the crayfish population, since the following year their abundance in the controlled section had recovered.
期刊介绍:
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation (antes Miscel·lània Zoològica) es una revista interdisciplinar, publicada desde 1958 por el Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona. Incluye artículos de investigación empírica y teórica en todas las áreas de la zoología (sistemática, taxonomía, morfología, biogeografía, ecología, etología, fisiología y genética) procedentes de todas las regiones del mundo. La revista presta especial interés a los estudios que planteen un problema nuevo o introduzcan un tema nuevo, con hipòtesis y prediccions claras, y a los trabajos que de una manera u otra tengan relevancia en la biología de la conservación. No se publicaran artículos puramente descriptivos, o artículos faunísticos o corológicos en los que se describa la distribución en el espacio o en el tiempo de los organismes zoológicos.
