Today to share with you a Japanese professor GRAZIELLA MURA of Kyoto University and Italy University of Rome professor HIDETOSHI NAGANAWA published in Crustaceana magazine, two kinds of Artemia cryptic species found in Mongolia and East Asian aquaculture activities may cause biological invasion and interference in Mongolia found two kinds of Bisexual Artemia cryptic species reported (Artemia murae and Artemia frameshifta), and belonging to two different evolutionary branches belong to Asian bisexual artemia. The article quotes information as follows:

Two new species of Artemia were found in Mongolia, one of which could be listed as a potential invasive species.

The article quotes information as follows:

Based on the above analysis, it is concluded that Mongolia may be the center of species formation of Artemia in Asia. However, the author also raised concerns about the newly discovered Artemia species. Because in the discovery of the two hidden in Artemia murae with individual growth fast and precocious characteristics is extremely obvious, with typical characteristics of biological invasion, once the species of Artemia escape into the environment through aquaculture activities, it is likely to cause biological invasion, which constitutes a serious threat to the local population of Artemia and ecological system. Therefore, the author believes that if the Artemia variety is used for aquaculture in the future, it is necessary to pay close attention and strict supervision.
