Post-MME Recruitment Pinna nobilis were recorded in a few sites where the resident population had been decimated. This hints to the importance of unaffected populations as larval exporting sources and the role of oceanographic currents in larval transport in the area, representing a beacon of hope in the current extremely worrying scenario for this emblematic species.

Se cita por primera vez en la provincia de Alicante (península ibérica) la especie de planaria terrestre exótica Bipalium cf. kewense Moseley, 1878. Con esta presencia aumenta el área de distribución de la especie en la Comunidad Valenciana, siendo la más meridional. Dado que la especie está considerada en esta comunidad autónoma como especie exótica invasora, se valora el riesgo potencial de colonización de ambientes naturales limítrofes a la zona de observación (jardín privado en zona urbanizada). The non-indigenous terrestrial flatworm Bipalium cf. kewense Moseley, 1878 is reported in Alicante province (Iberian Peninsula) for the first time. This occurrence is the most meridional from the Comunidad Valenciana, enlarging its distribution in this area. As the species is considered an invasive alien species in this region, the potential risk of colonizing natural environments closer to the observation area is evaluated.
