Abstract

The distribution of non-indigenous species (NIS) and the effect of some selected Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) on NIS establishment and spread was assessed using rapid assessment. Trophic interactions between the indigenous benthic taxa and NIS were investigated using stable isotope analysis, in order to determine the role of NIS in invaded ecosystems and possible impacts it has on indigenous taxa. Different protection regimes had no obvious effect on the pattern of benthic NIS spread. However, all fouling NIS and cryptogenic species on mooring lines of leisure craft were recorded outside of MPAs. Isotopic niche of non-indigenous herbivores Aplysia dactylomela and Percnon gibbesi showed no overlap with the ones of indigenous macroinvertebrates and fish. The mixing models indicated that the non-indigenous green alga Caulerpa cylindracea was the most important resource in the diet of the non-indigenous crab Percon gibbesi, thus providing the evidence for the invasion meltdown hypothesis.
