“…Although its native range is situated in the Russian Far East, northeastern China and the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, the Amur sleeper is now spread throughout most of eastern Europe and a large part of central Europe (Koščo et al, 2003;Reshetnikov, 2004Reshetnikov, , 2010. Even though the Amur sleeper's influence on native freshwater species in the Danube is still unknown (Hegediš et al, 2007;Lenhardt et al, 2011), its negative impact on freshwater biodiversity in other regions has been observed (Reshetnikov, 2003). However, there have been no attempts made Fig.…”

The furthermost downstream sighting locality (s 1 ) was situated at the 744 river km, and the one furthest upstream (s n or, in this case, s 10 ) was at the 1,139 river km, which makes the distance between them 395 km (D = s 10 -s 1 ).…”

Data on the presence of invasive species are often scarce, especially during the initial period following their introduction, when population abundance and species detectability are both still very low. In such cases, sporadic sightings in their newly occupied territory are often the only available information about their presence and distribution. Here, we demonstrate the potential of using probabilistic models for the assessment of the distribution of newly established invasive species in rivers, based on their sighting records. We have applied Solow's equation to the sighting record of the Amur sleeper (Perccottus glenii) in the Danube River, to assess the probable range of its population. The method applied indicated that, at the time when the sightings have been made (2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008), the Amur sleeper population in the Danube most probably extended between the 704.5 and 1,178.5 river km, while it was highly improbable (P \ 0.05) that it was present downstream from the 606 river km or upstream from the 1,277 river km. The application of this approach has, however, to be tested further on a larger number of scenarios and case studies in order to evaluate its reliability. What this method lacks in complexity, compared to more advanced species distribution assessments, it makes up by its ability to be easily used and quickly applied for preliminary assessments of the ranges of riverine species. As a result, the proposed approach might be of interest for scientists and managers dealing with invasive species.

“…In the same year it was collected in the Gulf of Finland (Panov et al 1999). During the last few years Chinese sleeper has been consecutively found in the Tisza River drainage area in Ukraine, Slovakia, Hungary, and Romania (Koščo et al 2003, Hegediš et al 2007) and in Danube River within the territory of Serbia and Bulgaria (Jurajda et al 2006, Hegediš et al 2007. P. glenii was also found in White Sea and Arctic Ocean basins (Bogutskaya and Naseka 2002;Koščo et al 2003).…”

“…Recently, it was recorded in the Vistula River near Tczew and in the Wisłoka River (Wiśniewolski et al 2001). Expansion of the range of this species is still in progress (Bogucka and Naseka 2002;Hegediš et al 2007;Reshetnikov 2004;Jurajda et al 2006).…”

First record of Nippotaenia mogurndae Yamaguti and Miyata, 1940 (Cestoda, Nippotaeniidae), a parasite introduced with Chinese sleeper to Poland

A parasitological survey of an Asian fish, Chinese sleeper Perccottus glenii, inhabiting the Włocławek Reservoir on the lower Vistula River (central Poland) revealed the occurrence of an exotic cestode Nippotaenia mogurndae Yamaguti and Miyata, 1940, which spreads spontaneously with a host to European waters. This paper documented the first record of the parasite in Poland. Specimens were described, and the effect of fish size and season on the infection level was analyzed. Within the 3 years, 112 fish were examined. Samples were collected by electrofishing in the upper part of the Włocławek Reservoir three times (seasonally) in 2006 and 2007 and once in autumn 2008. Parasitological indices (prevalence, intensity of infection, and abundance) in particular samples as well as in two size groups of fish were calculated. Statistical tests were applied to analyze the results (Spearman's correlation coefficient and Mann-Whitney's U test). The infection level of Chinese sleeper with N. mogurndae in the Włocławek Reservoir (prevalence 54.7%, mean intensity of infection 7.2, maximum 29) was comparable to infection noted in the area of the natural range of the host. The infection of smaller fish (less than 80 mm, TL) increased gradually with increasing body size. The infection of bigger specimens was in general higher, but the parasite recruitment was of a more incidental character. The spreading of N. mogurndae with Chinese sleeper is still in progress. The Włocławek Reservoir provides suitable conditions for parasite development.
