LIFE INVASAQUA - AQUATIC INVASIVE ALIEN SPECIES OF FRESHWATER AND ESTUARINE SYS...
Oliva-Paterna, F.; Olivo del Amo, R.; López-Cañizares, C.; Guillén-Beltrán, A.; Brandao, Pedro; Banha, F.; Anastácio, PedroThe Spanish and Portuguese societies have a limited understanding of the threats posed by invasive alien species (IAS) in aquatic ecosystems. This gap of knowledge and awareness about IAS problems hampers any policy proposed by administrations and stakeholders, contributing to missing an IAS management strategy. We present the final results, impacts and some learned lessons achieved in the Environmental Governa...
Angler’s preferences, perceptions and practices regarding non-native freshwater...
Banha, F.; Gago, João; Margalejo, D.; Feijão, J.; Casals, F.; Anastácio, P.M.; Ribeiro, F.It is globally recognized that freshwater anglers can have a decisive role in promoting fish introductions. The aim of this study was to analyze fresh water anglers’ actions and perceptions regarding fish introductions, comparing two distinct situations, one with recently arrived non-natives fishes and another with older fish introductions, using the Iberian Peninsula as a case study. To achieve this goal, a bi...

The silent extinction of freshwater mussels in Portugal
Lopes-Lima, M.; Reis, J.; Alvarez, Maria G.; Anastácio, P. M.; Banha, F.; Beja, P.; Castro, P.; Gama, Mafalda; Gil, M. G.; Gomes-dos-Santos, A.Freshwater mussels are one of the most threatened animal groups in the world. In the European Union, threatened and protected mussel species are not adequately monitored, while species considered to be common and widespread receive even less attention. This is particularly worrying in the Mediterranean region, where species endemism is high and freshwater habitats are severely affected by water scarcity. In the...
First record of intraspecific cleaning behavior by the threatened Leuciscidae S...
Soares, M. C.; Sónia, C. Cardoso; Fernandes, P.; C. Alves, J.; Anastácio, P. M.; Banha, F.qualius alburnoides (Steindachner, 1866) is an endemic threatened species from the Iberian Peninsula. Here, we report the first observations of intraspecific cleaning behavior in isolated summer pools in the Guadiana River Basin (Portugal). We found that focal S. alburnoides solicited cleaning by adopting an immobile tail-stand position known as “posing,” which immediately signaled a response to a few conspecif...
