NY Fishhook water fleaits native to northern Europe, Asia and appeared first in lake Ontario and has spread too lake Michigan and erie What to do to stop the spread: clean fishing equipment before leaving, drain water related equipment, dispose of any unwanted bait or parts of fish in garbage. they compete directly with small fish that also need to eat zooplankton. Research shows that perch aren't growing like they should and some young can't survive because of the lack of food.
NY Asian Carp is native to Asia hence the Asian, Flooding and accidental releases allowed these fish to escape into the Mississippi River system and migrate into the Missouri and Illinois rivers. Asian carp cause serious damage to the native fish populations in the lakes and rivers Ways to get rid of Asian carp can start by poisoning them, blocking them, catching them and eating them
has the highest rates of filtration rates, food consumption and stopping the growth of any species NY The Asian clam As a native species. This clam originally occurs in freshwater environments of Eastern Asia, including Russia, Thailand, the Philippines, China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan and spread to the erie canal Ways to stop spreading of the Asian clam can start by you cleaning equipment off that comes in contact with the water
NY Chinese mitten crabs are native to China's and South Korea's coastal rivers and estuaries that drain to the Yellow Sea. In Europe and California, Chinese mitten crabs are believed to have been introduced via ship ballast water and, possibly, intentionally released to establish fisheries. Chinese mitten crab The burrowing activities of Chinese mitten crabs cause damage to dikes, levees, and stream banks and increase erosion, which can cause weakening or collapse of flood control and water supply systems.
NY Sea Lamprey The sea lamprey is a primitive, eel-like fish native to the northern Atlantic Ocean and the Baltic, western Mediterranean and Adriatic seas. Sea lampreys invaded the Great Lakes in the early 20th century through shipping canals. • Sea lamprey have a major detrimental impact on American ecosystems. The sea lamprey has been considered a non-native invasive species that entered Lake Champlain during the 1800s through the Hudson/Champlain Canal. Control methods is a lampricide.
NY The mute swan originated It is native to much of Eurasia, and a the far north of Africa. It is an introduced species in NorthAmerica, Australasia and southern Africa. If you have mute swans on your property and wish to remove them or their nests and eggs, you must request a permit from your local DNR office. Identification: Adult mute swans have orange bills. A black knob on the top of their bill. Mute swans can cause a variety of problems, including aggressive behavior towards people, destruction of submerged aquatic vegetation, displacement of native wildlife species, degradation of water quality, and potential hazards to aviation.
NY The round goby comes from the Black & Caspian Seas in Europe. It was introduced into the U.S. via ballast water into the St. Clair River, near Detroit, MI in 1990. The round goby has not been found in Kansas. Learn to identify the Round Goby. Empty bait buckets, livewells and bilges prior to leaving any water body. Do not use Round Gobies as bait (it is illegal to use or have Round Goby in your possession) Dispose of unused bait and fish waste in the garbage. The round goby can displace native fish from prime habitat and spawning areas. Round gobies eat the eggs and young of other fish species. Have a competitive advantage over other species because of the ability to survive in poor quality water.
NY Origin and Spread. The spiny water flea is native to Europe and Asia. The species was unintentionally introduced into the United States' Great Lakes through the discharge of contaminated cargo ship ballast water. They were first discovered in Lake Ontario in 1982, and spread to Lake Superior by 1987. Inspect your equipment upon leaving a lake. Remove all visible plants and animals from your boat, trailer, and accessory equipment before leaving the access area. Drain live wells and bilge water before you leave the access site. Empty all water from bait buckets onto the land, and not into a body of water. Our native harmless zooplankton is called water flea or daphnia. Evidence: Because spiny water fleas eat zooplankton like Daphnia, they compete directly with small fish that also need to eat zooplankton. Research shows that perch aren't growing like they should and some young can't survive because of the lack of food.
NY The northern snakehead was introduced to rivers in Japan in the early 20th century, but there has been little study of its ecological effects there. (The largemouth bass, native to North America, was introduced to Japanese waters in 1925 and is reportedly terrorizing native fish and snakeheads alike.) Early detection of isolated populations may help slow or restrict the spread of the snakehead. If you find a snakehead fish, kill it and put it on ice, then contact your state's Department of Natural Resources. RISKS/IMPACTS: The impact northern snakeheads will have on U.S. waters is largely unknown. Like most other invasive species, these predatory fish compete with native species for food and habitat. Juveniles feed on zooplankton, insect larvae, small crustaceans, and the fry of other fish.
NY Asian shore crab Invasive range of the Asian shore crab. Courtesy of USGS. Along the Atlantic intertidal coastline from Maine to North Carolina, this crab is now breeding and increasing rapidly in number. There is no way to get rid of these crabs as of right now Impact of Introduction: Because this species has a very broad diet, it has the potential to affect populations of native species such as crabs, fish, and shellfish by disrupting the food web
NY Emerald ash borer Adult beetles lay eggs on the bark of ash trees. When the eggs hatch, the larvae (immature beetles) bore into the bark and feed on the transportation tissues of the tree. This disrupts the movement of nutrients and water within the tree, girdling it and causing tree death. • Emerald ash borer (EAB), Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire, is an exotic beetle that was discovered in southeastern Michigan near Detroit in the summer of 2002. ... Emerald ash borer probably arrived in the United States on solid wood packing material carried in cargo ships or airplanes originating in its native Asia. When treating larger trees with imidacloprid or dinotefuran soil treatments, particularly when EAB density is high, studies have shown that applying the highest labeled rate is most effective.
NY Oak wilt Oak wilt. Oak wilt is a fungal disease affecting oak trees caused by the fungus Bretziella fagacearum (previously known as Ceratocystis fagacearum). ... The fungus spreads from diseased to healthy trees from insects or by connections between tree roots. • There is no definite way of how oak wilt got here There is no way to get rid of this
