| Abstract |
Sinelobus vanhaareni is unique as far as non-native species are concerned. It was described in 2014 based on individuals found in the Netherlands. The origin of this species is unknown. When Sinelobus vanhaareni first occurred in the Netherlands (Rhine delta, 2006) and Belgium (Port of Antwerp, 2007), it was identified as Sinelobus stanfordi (H. Richardson, 1901), based upon the literature of that time. It was thought that this species was already globally dispersed since the 16th century. However, in 2014, it turned out to be a new species to science and was named after its Dutch discoverer: Sinelobus vanhaareni. This tanaid lives in mud/silt tubes that are – at least in its new distribution area – attached to hard, mostly artificial substrates in the brackish water of harbours and estuaries. The dispersal of this species presumably occurred through shipping: by attachment to ship hulls or getting caught in the ballast material or water of ships. |
