| Abstract |
The Bloody-red shrimp Hemimysis anomala occurs naturally in the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea and in the Don River (Russia), where there are many loose stones or clayey banks with cavities. The species was introduced as fish food in some waters of the former Soviet Union. However, the populations expanded and colonised European waters. On the 12th of October 1999, the bloody-red shrimp was observed in a brackish water pond near the Port of Antwerp. The Bloody-red shrimp is an efficient omnivore that can thrive in both still and flowing water. Because the species cannot survive in water with a high salt concentration, its distribution is limited to the fresh and brackish parts of rivers. |
