Freshwater shrimps (Atyidae, Palaemonidae, Typhlocarididae) in the Broader Mediterranean Region : distribution, life strategies, threats, conservation challenges and taxonomic issuesChristodoulou, Magdalini ...The turbulent and intricate geology of the Mediterranean region has been responsible for connections, redirections, and interruptions of freshwater systems that have been instrumental in the ... speciation and distribution of many organisms, including freshwater shrimps. There are 50 species and subspecies currently reported from the freshwater systems of the broader Mediterranean region that belong to 11 genera and three families. Three of these are exotic species that have been introduced to the region%s ecosystems from elsewhere. The majority of species of Mediterranean freshwater shrimps belong to the Atyidae, followed by the Palaemonidae, and the Typhlocarididae, and most species have a very restricted distributional range. Among the three Mediterranean Peninsulas, the Balkan Peninsula fosters the highest biodiversity and is the species hotspot within the region. Subterranean (hypogean) and surface (epigean) habitats of the broader Mediterranean region are equally dwelled by shrimps. Currently 14 native species of freshwater shrimps are assessed by the IUCN Red List as threatened with extinction from increased freshwater ecosystem degradation which underlines the urgent need for conservation action.Source: A global overview of the conservation of freshwater decapod crustaceans (Str. 199-236)Type of material - article, component part ; adult, seriousPublish date - 2016Language - englishCOBISS.SI-ID - 1538972868
