Title

2002-2003 Christopher W. Ashelby Stour and Orwell Ensis directus and Caprella mutica distribution record

Abstract

A series of surveys of the Stour and Orwell estuaries, Harwich Harbour and the deep-water approaches to the Harbour has highlighted the presence of a number of non-native species. The distribution and abundance of non-native macrofauna in the area are discussed. New records of one nonnative and one cryptogenic species are presented.

Lineage

Part of MSFD NNS baseline data collation project (Jan 2016). Subset of a dataset as we were only pulling out records for a selection of INNS. Contains records for Ensis directus and Caprella mutica. If any sensitive species or biotope records are present within this dataset, they will have been removed. If you wish to request access to sensitive species records, please contact the metadata contact. The UK Sensitive Species list has been agreed by UK statutory bodies and relevant experts. It can be viewed here https://docs.nbnatlas.org/sensitive-species-list/. Please note sensitive species lists can vary across the UK. See Ashelby, C.W. 2005. The occurrence and distribution of non-native fauna in Harwich Harbour and the Stour and Orwell estuaries, including new records of Caprella mutica Schurin 1935 and Bugula stolonifera Ryland 1960.
