6858 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field Sander lucioperca is a top predator in introduced habitats (France), i.e., preys on other predators such as pike (Esox lucius) and catfish (Silurus glanis). France 42064
6860 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field A paleolimnologic study in the Danish Lake Skanderborg, where Sander lucioperca was introduced in 1903-04, found evidence of reduced cyprinid population densities. After the introduction of zander, a permanent reduction of cyprinid densities was observed. Lake Skanderborg, Denmark 42065
6861 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A The introduction of Sander lucioperca to English rivers created a crash in the cyprinid fish community. 31214
6862 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In the Turkish Lake Egredir, Sander lucioperca was introduced in 1955 and from 1961 it became an important species in commercial fisheries in the lake. The introduction also had the result that 5 out of 9 indigenous fish species disappeared, among these three species of Phoxinellus, two of which were endemic to Lake Egredir. Consequently, these two species must now be considered extinct worldwide. Lake Egredir, Turkey 31500
6863 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In Denmark, Sander lucioperca predation on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts was observed in the lower part of the river. This predation had an adverse effect on salmon population dynamics. Denmark 42066
9119 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field A study of zander (Sander lucioperca) diet in French reservoirs found that all zander size groups consume bleak (Alburnus alburnus), perch (Perca fluviatilis), and other zander. Castillon and Treignac Reservoirs, France 31210
9120 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field A study of zander (Sander lucioperca) diet in French reservoirs found that zander in the smallest size group (< 250 mm length) preyed preferentially on insects and crustaceans. The largest size group (> 330 mm length) fed only on fish and roach (Rutilus rutilus), bream (Abramis brama), and brown trout (Salmo trutta) were observed in their stomach contents. Castillon and Treignac Reservoirs, France 31210
9121 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A The introduction of zander (Sander lucioperca) in a Turkish lake led to a decrease in abundance of Cyprinus carpio, Cobitis taenia, Vimba vimba due to predation. 31500
9122 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Experimental Laboratory Experiments addressing zander (Sander lucioperca) diet found that zander preferentially feed on Chaoborus spp. during their planktivorous life stage. When availability is low, zander will also incorporate Daphnia magna in their diet. 31222
9123 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field Zander (Sander lucioperca), in the Kaniv Reservoir, Ukraine, consumed 21 different food items. The most important prey species were roach (Rutilus rutilus) and perch (Perca fluviatilis), which composed 52.8% and 34.1% respectively. Notably, zander also consumed zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha), monkey goby (Neogobius fluviatilis), and round goby (N. melanostomus). Kaniv Reservoir, Ukraine 34238
9124 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In turbid lakes, zander larvae were highly selective for Daphnia spp. and copepods. 41867
9125 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In the Sidi Salem dam, Tunisia, zander (Sander lucioperca) feeds primarily on teleost fish, the cyprinids Sarmarutilus rubilio and Scardinius erythrophthalmus are the main prey. Sidi Salem dam, Tunisia 35679
9126 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field Sander lucioperca preferentially preyed on big-scale sand smelt (Atherina boyeri), Prussian carp (Carassius gibelio) was not a preferred food item. Egirdir Lake, Turkey 42239
9127 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In northern populations, zander diet was mainly composed of roach (Rutilus rutilus), largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides), and Diptera species. At lower latitudes, common bleak (Alburnus alburnus), red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), and Atyidae spp. were important prey items. Portugal 42266
9128 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field In a Russian reservoir, Zander preferentially preyed on perch (Perca fluviatilis) yearlings. Rybinsk Reservoir, Russia 35696
9140 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Experimental Field Experimental introduction of zander (Sander lucioperca) in a Norwegian lake reduced the pelagic refuge available for juvenile roach (Rutilus rutilus) and increased their availability to littoral predators. The effect is an alteration of the fish community towards dominance by littoral predators, perch (Perca fluviatilis) in this study. Lake Gjersjøen, Norway 41849
9141 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A The introduction of zander (Sander lucioperca) to a Danish lake in the early 1900s led to a permanent reduction in cyprinid densities. 31221
9142 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A The introduction of zander (Sander lucioperca) in a Turkish lake led to a shift in habitat use for pelagic fish species and greatly increased crayfish abundance. 31500
9143 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A Introduction of zander in the UK led to the deterioration of cyprinid stocks and lower total biomass levels. 38368
9144 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Experimental Field In pond experiments, a high density of zander (Sander lucioperca) can reduce the recruitment of 0+ cyprinids in early development phases. Netherlands 39011
9145 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Experimental Field In pond experiments, a high density of planktivorous zander (Sander lucioperca) can survive until the end of the first season and directly impact the density and composition of the zooplankton community. Netherlands 39011
9146 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Anecdotal N/A According to stable isotope models, zander populations in Turkey consume invertebrates, including crayfish, in spring but shift to a higher trophic position in autumn when they consume fish. 41856
9147 Sander lucioperca Predation/Herbivory Observational Field Zander facilitated trophic transport of Bis(4-chlorophenyl) sulfone (BCPS) up the food web. Danube, Austria 41858
