How do you workout the exact identity of an invasive species? @felucy64 and I have a new paper hot off the press. mdpi.com/2073-4441/11/8… Accurately identifying an invasive species is a priority requirement when beginning to work out its potential impacts, vectors of spread

To date 5 pink salmon reported from 3 Irish catchments - recent floods may increase this. #citizenscience #salmon.
