Abstract | The Shimofuri goby Tridentiger bifasciatus is native to the northwestern Pacific Ocean. This goby was likely introduced to the Ghent-Terneuzen Canal through ballast water exchange, where the fish was first detected in 2022. It remains to be seen whether this species will have a similarly detrimental impact on native fauna as its relative, the Round goby. Due to its cryptic lifestyle and morphological similarity to native goby species, it is possible that the species already has a broader distribution in European river systems than currently assumed. |
