Eunapius carteri in Spain

Added on 2018-01-15 19:46:11 by van Soest, Rob
Carballeira, R. (2018) Rediscovery of Eunapius carteri (Bowerbank, 1863) in Western Europe. Turkish Journal of Zoology 42: 137-145.
The freshwater sponge collections of the National Museum of Natural History of Madrid were examined and the presence of Eunapius carteri (Bowerbank, 1863) in the Iberian Peninsula was rediscovered. An approach to its ecology is also presented. This species is not currently considered within the Iberian and Western European fauna. Therefore, its rediscovery changes the conception of this species’ biogeographical distribution in Europe linked to its ecology.
