“…The first studies of crustaceans in Algerian waters were carried out at the beginning of the 19th century during the Scientific Exploration of Algeria (1840 to 1842) [57] which described seven new species of Isopoda along the Algerian coasts: Anthura filiformis (Lucas, 1849), Dynamene edwardsi (Lucas, 1849), Gnathia vorax (Lucas, 1849), Paranthura nigropunctata (Lucas, 1846), Rocinela dumerilii (Lucas, 1849), Stenetriidae incertae sedis longicornis (Lucas, 1849) and Stenosoma carinata (Lucas, 1846). Later, a new Mysida Rhopalophthalmus mediterraneus was described by [64], the Tanaidacea Apseudopsis annabensis (Guţu, 2002) by [94], and, more recently a new Isopoda Stenosoma stephenseni Santos & Xavier, 2011 by [110].…”

This study records the number of Peracarida (Cumacea, Isopoda, Mysida, Lophogastrida and Tanaidacea) from Algerian coastal waters. A total of 170 species are reported with the highest richness observed in the Isopoda (71 species), then the Cumacea with 43 species, the Mysida and Tanaidacea with 27 species each and the Lophogastrida with only two species. The diversity of Peracarida in Algeria is high, corresponding to 60% of the species recorded for the Mediterranean Sea. A geographical analysis of the distribution of the species shows that the Algerian fauna has a close similarity with taxa reported from both the European and African coasts of the Atlantic Ocean. This reflects the influence of Atlantic waters along the North African coasts extending from Morocco to Tunisia in the south of the Mediterranean Sea, which is related to the connection via the Strait of Gibraltar. For the Algerian coasts only five Peracarida species may be considered as Non-Indigenous Species.

“…Many environmental stressors impact river and stream environments, with human activity accounting for the bulk of these stressors. Chemical and organic waste, exacerbated by runoff from agricultural pesticides, improperly controlled industrial processes, and the lack of suitable disposal of sewage have plagued streams in developed countries including Egypt, (Dorgham et al, 2019).…”
