The killer shrimp, Dikerogammarus villosus (Crustacea Amphipoda), has been recognised as one of the 100 worst alien species in Europe, representing a major issue for local biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. During the last 20 years, it has ccolonized Central and Western Europe via the central and southern invasion corridors. Its spread was associated mainly with commercial shipping in large waterways but it was also transported overland to several Alpine lakes and even overseas to the British Isles. This thesis is an attempt to track the routes and dynamics of invasion of this one of the most effective freshwater invader. Molecular methods were used to reveal phylogeography of D. villosus in the native and invaded area as well as to ta...
