dc.description.abstractInvasive species have been drivers of biodiversity loss and functional changes in aquatic ecosystems, including in protected areas. Therefore, monitoring population invasion dynamics and biological traits is fundamental to better understand their ecological and economic impacts and for management actions development. We followed signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) invasion in Rabaçal River upper reach at Montesinho Natural Park, Portugal. We collected information on the spread and biological traits (abundance, size, weight, physical condition, sex ratio, and aggressiveness) to assess differences between invasion core and front areas and among years. Signal crayfish population remained restricted since first reports in 2013 in the invasion core until 2017. After 2019, signal crayfish population has been spreading downstream, decreasing abundance at invasion core but increasing at invasion front. Significant higher number of crayfish with claw loss indicate potential higher signs of aggressiveness in the invasion front. Results also demonstrate a significant dominance of females although sex ratio is closer to 1:1 at the invasion front. Overall, results indicate signal crayfish is spreading and increasing their abundance at Rabaçal River highlighting the need for immediate management actions to hold dispersion and mitigate possible impacts.pt_PT
