Introduced species impact in Israeli part of the Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin (Marine Region) : Other impact - undefined or uncertain [details]Introduced species impact in Turkish part of the Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin (Marine Region) : Other impact - undefined or uncertain [details]
Introduced species remark In Turkish part of the Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin (Marine Region) : 1st & 2nd record of T. spinosissimus in Mediterranean were from Bay of Trianda, north-western coast of Rhodes Island, south-eastern Aegean Sea. The first was collected in 2004 (Corsini et al. 2005), the second in 2009 (Corsini-Foka et al. 2010) [details]
Introduced species vector dispersal in Israeli part of the Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin (Marine Region) : Canals: natural range expansion through man-made canals [details]
Introduced species vector dispersal in Greek part of the Aegean Sea (Marine Region) : Canals: natural range expansion through man-made canals [details]
Introduced species vector dispersal in Turkish part of the Mediterranean Sea - Eastern Basin (Marine Region) : Ships: accidental with ballast water, sea water systems, live wells or other deck basins
Ongoing discussion of Lessepsian migration of this species (Corsini-Foka & Economidis, 2007 in Turan & Yaglioglu, 2011) but discontinuity of distribution indicates that introduction of T. spinosissimus may be due to ship-mediated transport. Indicates that introduction of T. spinosissimus may be due to ship-mediated transport. [details]
