4200 Clupeonella cultriventris Competition Anecdotal N/A Clupeonella cultriventris has become very abundant in the Volga River reservoirs, contributing to the decline in native populations. It may compete with other planktivorous pelagic fish if it attains a large population in the Great Lakes, similar to the effects of the already established Alewife 13077
4237 Clupeonella cultriventris Competition Observational Field C. cultriventris became superdominate (65-99% catch) in Dneprodzerzhinsk and Kremenchug reservoirs replacing bleak (Alburnus alburnus) and common roach (Rutilus rutilus) and have maintained dominate population levels for at least 40 years Ukraine 36119
4245 Clupeonella cultriventris Competition Observational Field The dominance of C. cultriventris in the Volga may have suppressed native coregonid populations Volga River 36136
5799 Clupeonella cultriventris Competition Observational Field In the Rybinsk Reservoir, when the Caspian Sea sprat (Clupeonella cultriventris) is very abundant (more than 50% of sample catches), it feeds on the same planktonic organisms as native species, and their feeding similarity indices are greater than 50%. When this species is less numerous, feeding similarity with native species is less than 40%. Rybinsk Reservoir, Russia 36110
