“…Amur sleeper, P. glenii, is reported as a non-native (alien) species in many European countries (Reshetnikov, 2004;Grabowska et al, 2010). Parasite fauna of the Amur sleeper was extensively investigated in many geographic regions of the Danube River basin, including the Danube River (Serbia) (Nikolic et al, 2007), Tisza River (Slovakia) (Košuthová et al, 2009) and Latorica River (Slovakia) (Ondračková, unpublished data), with no monogenean parasites found to date.…”

“…In Poland, this fish was recorded for the first time in 1993 (in oxbow lake of the Vistula River near Dęblin) (Antychowicz, 1994), and in a short period its population rapidly expanded and fish migrated downstream of the Vistula River and its tributaries (Nowak et al, 2008). There is no evidence or record of fish release directly linked to P. glenii presence in Poland and the circumstances of its introduction to Poland remain unclear (Grabowska et al, 2010). To date, occurrence of two parasite species of Amur sleeper was reported in Europe: cestode parasite Nippotaenia (syn.…”

Introduction of Gyrodactylus perccotti (Monogenea) into Europe on its invasive fish host, Amur sleeper (Perccottus glenii, Dybowski 1877)

Monogenean parasites of Amur sleeper Perccottus glenii introduced to Europe during the last century were studied during two seasons in the Wloclawski Reservoir (Poland). Introduction of a single species Gyrodactylus perccotti with its host was confirmed in both seasons: autumn 2006 and spring 2008. Occurrence of G. perccotti in Europe was reported for the first time. Intensity of infection decreased from 2006 to 2008, but the prevalence did not differ between the seasons. G. perccotti sampled in autumn 2006 showed low morphometrical variability and high morphological similarity with parasites collected in host native range, Amur River. In contrary, high morphological and metrical variability was found within the samples collected in spring 2008. Nucleic acid sequencing of the partial ITS rDNA confirmed that despite the variation in morphology or size of haptoral hard parts, all studied Gyrodactylus specimens belonged to the same species (G. percotti) and no intraspecific variation was detected.

Abstract:The ichthyofauna o f the O dra River, its m ajor tributaries (Oława, Widawa, Bystrzyca, Ślęza) and selected reservoirs (sand and clay pits, city park ponds, recreational reservoirs, city m oat) within the city o f W rocław is described on the basis o f data obtained in our ow n studies (electrofishing and net-catching), quality control catches o f the Polish Angling Association, analysis o f stocking registers, control and analysis o f angling inquiries and interviewing anglers in 1980-2010. Forty six fish and lamprey species were recorded: 42 in the Odra River, and 41 in its tributaries. Twenty eight species were recorded from the city reservoirs; they represented euryoecious and stagnophilous ecological groups. The study area holds nine species w hich are legally protected in Poland (Lampetra planeri, Acipenser oxirynchus, Gobi о albipinnatus, Rhodeus sericeus, Eupallasella percnurus, Cobitis taenia, Sabanejewia baltica (=aurata), Misgurnus fossilis, Barbatula barbatula) and five species regarded as endangered in the country {Barbus barbus, Vimba vimba, Chondrostoma nasus, Hucho hucho, Salmo salar). Eleven species occurring in the w ater courses and reservoirs o f W roclaw are protected within the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EW G). Ten species introduced accidentally or on purpose occur in the city. Despite the high anthropopressure, including intensive angling, the W roclaw waters still hold diverse, and the O dra River itself -even rich -fish communities.

“…Three less-frequently encountered species were the racer goby Neogobius gymnotrachelus, the Amur sleeper Perccottus glenii and the ninespine stickleback, Pungitius pungitius, the latter being found close to the Polish border in the Dnieper-Bug Canal only. The freshwater fish fauna in Poland consisted of 57 native and 26 non-native species (Witkowski 1996, Witkowski 2002, Grabowska et al 2010, although only about 11 of the non-native species have become established in open water. Eight species have been recorded in the Polish section of the central corridor (Table 2) (Brylińska 2000, Czeczuga et al 2002, Kostrzewa et al 2004, Grabowska et al 2008.…”

This is the first comprehensive review to examine the role of the central European invasion corridor on fish introductions into Belarusian and Polish inland waters (Dnieper-Bug-Vistula-OderElbe-Spree-Havel). Historical and recent data were assessed, were also found within the corridor -the Amur sleeper Perccottus glenii, gibel carp Carassius gibelio, brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus and the topmouth gudgeon Pseudorasbora parva. Their presence is related to numerous accidental introductions to many localities in Belarus and Poland, rather than from using the corridor as an invasion route. One species, the ninespine stickleback, Pungitius pungitius, has migrated from the Baltic basin to the Black Sea drainage systems.
