Impact DescriptionThe round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) was found to be an effective predator of marbled crayfish in lab experiments. Round goby had a significantly higher attack rate on marbled crayfish relative to the other species examined and the authors note that round goby ‘may demonstrate a potential to regulate P. virginalis populations in the wild’.
