“…Densities of up to 27,000 small individuals have been recorded [66]. Its native distribution ranges from the Iberian Peninsula to Senegal and from Angola to South Africa (eastern Atlantic); it is also known from southeastern Africa (Indian Ocean) and the southwestern Mediterranean Sea [57,62,[67][68][69][70][71]. Perna perna has been introduced to South America, in the context of at least two introduction events, from northwestern and southwestern Africa, respectively [68].…”

Most species arriving from a donor to a recipient area do not succeed in establishing long-lasting self-sustaining populations. However, successful introductions are far better documented than those that failed, especially those occurring before or near the advent of the Linnaean binomial nomenclature. We report here an introduction from the mid-18th century (possibly in 1750 or 1751) of an exotic mussel transported as fouling on ship hulls from the western coast of Morocco (Atlantic Ocean) to the port of Marseilles (Mediterranean Sea). The exotic mussel, which survived several years, has been identified as probably being the brown mussel, Perna perna, a species with warm-water affinities, which much later became invasive in several areas of the world ocean. The documents of the 18th and early 19th century, which mentioned the event, held ‘the curious’ and ‘amateurs’, who harvested the mussels, responsible for its extirpation. More realistically, it is hypothesised that the mussel population did not survive the return of severe cold weather conditions, after a few relatively mild decades, in the context of the Little Ice Age (LIA). These conclusions were deduced from historical data and are therefore open to discussion.

Ekotoksikologi akuatik merupakan ilmu yang mempelajari mengenai hubungan yang terjadi antara bahan beracun dengan organisme akuatik dalam suatu lingkungan perairan. Dalam ekotoksikologi dikenal dengan istilah sentinel organism yang berarti organisme yang dijadikan sebagai alat uji di tingkat laboratorium yang digunakan untuk monitoring lingkungan. Salah satu biota yang dapat digunakan sebagai sentinel organism untuk monitoring lingkungan adalah kerang coklat (Perna perna). Adapun dilakukan praktikum ekotoksikologi akuatik untuk melihat dan menganalisis kondisi dan Stress on Stress (SOS) serta mengetahui informasi mengenai keadaan dan kondisi lingkungan di Perairan Pandang Lau, Kecamatan Pangkajene, Kabupaten Pangkajene dan Kepulauan menggunakan kerang coklat (Perna perna) sebagai sentinel orgnism. Dari hasil uji didapatkan pada kerang coklat (Perna perna), indeks kondisi (IK) yang memiliki korelasi yang sangat kuat dan signifikan yaitu IK 5 dan IK 9 terhadap kandungan logam timbal dalam bentuk IBLK. Hal ini berarti bahwa IK 5 dan IK 9 merupakan IK sensitif dalam merekam keberadaan timbal (Pb) dan dapat digunakan sebagai biomarker dalam monitoring lingkungan atau penentuan status perairan.
