2024 was a decent year for Marmorkrebs research

It’s time for our annual* tradition to look at the trendlines for marbled crayfish research...

 

A graph plotting number of Marmorkrebs journal articles every years since 2003, generall increasing until 2018 and generally decreasing since.

 

I can’t say that I am super excited by what seems to be a new normal for Marmorkrebs research. There is a stronger need for research than ever, given that the number of countries with introduced Marmorkrebs just keeps growing. South Korea was added to the map of countries with confirmed introductions (although the discovery was a while back).


Meanwhile, Minnesota banned Marmorkrebs. And I am concerned that these bans are not having any exemptions for bona fide scientific research.
