Our paper is on the cover of the latest issue of Hydrobiologia! 🎨🐟 Our study on non-native freshwater fishes across the circum-Mediterranean region is featured on the cover of Volume 853, Issue 20. Pretty cool to see my photo out there! 🔗: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Catástrofe invisible: peces invasores en los ríos mediterráneos
Los ríos de la región mediterránea albergan una biodiversidad única. Sin embargo, este patrimonio natural se enfrenta a una amenaza creciente: la introducción y expansión de especies no autóctonas.
