Impact Description | After its introduction to the Volga River basin, Heterocope appendiculata and other non-native zooplankton species may have formed the basis of a new food chain for planktivorous fish; however, there is not enough evidence to suggest that Heterocope appendiculata will significantly alter the food web if introduced to the Great Lakes. |
