Exotic species invasions often result in native biodiversity loss, ie a lower taxonomic
diversity, but current knowledge on invasions effects underlined a potential increase of …

Motivation We compiled a global database of long‐term riverine fish surveys from 46
regional and national monitoring programmes and from individual academic research …

Aim River flow regimes are changing globally as a consequence of human use of freshwater
resources. Additionally, rivers are among the most invaded ecosystems. Invasion biology …

We analyzed the large-scale drivers of biological invasions using freshwater fish in a
Mediterranean country as a test case, and considering the contribution of single species to …

The introduction and establishment of non-native fish species is a widespread phenomenon
in freshwater ecosystems, including small and shallow lakes. However, these ecosystems …

Freshwater ecosystems appear more vulnerable to biodiversity loss due to several
anthropogenic disturbances and freshwater fish are particularly vulnerable to these impacts …

Mediterranean rivers are characterised by strong environmental constrains and species-
poor, highly endemic fish fauna. In Europe, these systems are exposed to multiple stressors …

Freshwater fish communities are impacted by multiple pressures, determining loss of
functional diversity and redundancy. Our aim was to disentangle the roles and relevancies of …

Anthropogenic salinisation is becoming an increasing global issue for freshwater
ecosystems, leading to serious biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation. While the effect …

Protected areas (PAs) are the cornerstones of global biodiversity conservation efforts, but to
fulfil this role they must be effective at conserving both habitat and species. Among protected …
