“…Outside of the infl uence of thermal waters from power plants, prawns are regularly found in the area of the Kamsky Reach of the Kuybyshev Reservoir [19,33] and in the lower reaches of the Dniester River. The materials of the recent years show a wide distribution of the oriental river prawn to the Dniester River Basin [8,12,13].…”

“…However, the materials of recent years have shown that this species is actively spreading not only in the countries of Central and Southeast Asia [16][17][18] under favourable conditions for reproduction in terms of temperature, but also in the northern edge of its range, where M. nipponense was previously recorded only in zones of anomalous temperatures [8,13,19].…”

For the first time, a freshwater prawn of the genus Macrobrachium Spence Bate, 1868, earlier unknown for the basin of the Azov Sea, was recorded in the lower reaches of the Don River in September, 2019. Based on their morphological characteristics, the found specimens were identified as M. nipponense (De Haan, 1849). This work presents the results of genetic analysis confirming the species status of the prawn, and also reports on new discovery and spreading of this species in the Don River. Oriental river prawn M. nipponense is a subtropical species, in its natural range widespread in Southeast Asia. Since the middle of the 1960s, this species is rapidly expanding its range in Eurasia. In a temperate climatic zone within the area of the former USSR, this thermophilic species was introduced in cooling ponds of thermal power plants (TPP). Acclimatization of M. nipponense was carried out as a part of warm-water aquaculture in order to improve the food supply of fish and enrich the fauna of TPP cooling ponds. This paper summarizes the available information about the formation of stable populations of M. nipponense within the area of the former USSR countries, as well as an assessment of the risks of invasion in the Don River.

Northern Eurasia is extensive and includes terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems that cover several natural zones and access to the seas of three oceans. As a result, it has been invaded by numerous invasive alien species (IAS) over large temporal and spatial scales. The purpose of this research was to assess invasion trends and construct species distribution models for the Russian TOP-100 most dangerous IAS. Environmentally suitable regions for IAS were established based on alien species attribute databases, datasets of 169,709 species occurrence records (SOR) and raster layers of environmental variables using species distribution modelling (MaxEnt). The objectives of this research were to (1) create databases of SOR for the TOP-100 IAS in Russia; 2) determine pathways, residence time, donor regions and trends of invasions; (3) determine the main types of spatial distributions of invasive species and their relation to residence time; and (4) distinguish regions with the highest richness of IAS that have a strong impact on the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems of Russia. We found that although species invasions date back over 400 years, the number of naturalized IAS has increased non-linearly over the past 76 years. The TOP-100 list is mainly represented by unintentionally introduced species (62%) which are characterized by different introduction pathways. Species occurrence records revealed that 56 IAS are distributed locally, 26 are distributed regionally and 18 are widespread in Russia. Species with local, regional or widespread distributions were characterized by residence times of 55, 126 or 190 years, respectively. We found that IAS with local distribution can expand their range into suitable regions more extensively (expected increase by 32%) than widespread species (expected increase by only 7%). The procedure of identifying hot/cold spots locations based on SOR allowed us to identify the Russian regions with the highest richness of IAS. Our results and the integrated database that we created provide a framework for studying IAS over large temporal and spatial scales that can be used in the development of management plans for dangerous IAS.

Sasyk (Kunduk) – estuary in the North-Western Black Sea region, is located 120 kmsouth-west of Odessa. In 1979–1980 Sasyk was separated from the sea by a dam, connected by a canal with the Danube and transformed into a reservoir. The fauna of Sasyk underwent significant changes and continues to adapt to the new conditions. This process is of great theoretical and practical interest. Cumacea – a small order, numbering about 600 species; is represented in the Black Sea-Azov basin by 23 species, 11 of them belong to the Caspian complex. Due to their high quantity indicators, they play a significant role in the diet of many species of fish. Pterocuma pectinata (Sowinski, 1893) is the most abundant species of cumacean not only in the Sasyk Reservoir, but also in many bodies of water in the region. However, the biology and ecology of this group of animals has been very inadequately studied. The material for these studies was provided by 120 benthic samples collected from 41 stations in the Sasyk Reservoir in the vegetation period 2013–2014. In this study we also used the material collected by means of H. Hungerford underwater light traps. In total 4,000 specimens of cumaceans were processed. This article shows the results of the studyof the post-embryonic development, fertility and size-mass characteristic of P. pectinata in Sasyk Reservoir. For both sexes for age stages have been distinguished and described for cumaceans: «manca», youth, prebreeding and breeding. Between breeding cycles, females live through one more preparatory (intermediate) stage; the males die. This article provides a detailed morphological and morphometric description of all the stages of the ontogeny of cumaceans. The ratio of number of cumaceans at different stages of ontogeny varies considerably with the seasons. In the summer sexual development of cumacean occurs earlier than in the less warm seasons. A directly proportional relationship was found between body length and fertility of P. pectinata. With decrease in water temperature fertility increases. The corresponding regression equations were obtained. The maximum number of eggs observed in the spring of 2014 – 160 ind. in a female 8.0 mm in length (including the uropod length – 10.2 mm). Mean fecundity was 22 ± 1 and 21 ± 1 ind. in the summer of 2013 and 2014, 40 ± 2 and 32 ± 2 ind. in the autumn of 2013 and 2014, 72 ± 4 ind. in the spring of 2014; during the vegetation season 2014 – 42 ± 2 ind. The smallest oviparous female cumaceans (4–6 mm) were observed in the summer in both years of research with domination of the size group of 4–5 mm. The largest oviparous females (6.1–9.0 mm) were observed in the spring with domination of 6.1–7.0 mm size group. P. pectinata produces at least two generations per year in Sasyk Reservoir. P. pectinata reproduction occurs from March to the beginning of November. The peak of breeding is in early spring (March – April), which contributes to the restoration of population numbers after hibernation. The second stage of reproduction (October – November) is less intense. The lifespan of P. pectinata in the Sasyk Reservoir is about one year. Dependence of individual weight of the body is directly proportional to the length of P. pectinata and varies with the seasons. This article provides a table of the average "size – weight" of cumaceans. The data in this table can be used in ichthyological studies, namely the calculation of the reconstructed weight of the food item – P. pectinata, by size of its undigested chitin skeleton. The maximal length of P. pectinata in Sasyk is 8.5 mm (including uropod length – 10.7 mm), weight – 5 mg, significantly greater than the values specified for the populations of the upper reaches of the Kuibyshev Reservoir and the Caspian Sea. The results of the study significantly complement the existing knowledge of biology and ecology of P. pectinata, and expands our idea of the state of the ecosystem of the Sasyk Reservoir.
