It is eurythermic (80–35°C), mesohalic (0–10 ppt) and has the ability to airbreathe. These attributes predispose it to surviving in all but the most adverse of conditions and have directly contributed to its wide use as an aquaculture species. These attributes have also contributed to its ability to invade waterbodies beyond its natural range (de Moor & Bruton 1988) and after inadvertent introductions such as by escape from aquaculture facilities or through water transfer schemes, C. gariepinus has established populations in many non-native environments. Such invasions include the Philippines (Mercene 1997), Bangladesh (Arthur & Ahmed 2002), Thailand (Vidthayanon 2005), India (Bhakta & Bandyopadhyay 2007) and Brazil (Cambray 2005; Vitule et al. 2006; Rocha & Schiavetti 2007). In South Africa, C. gariepinus invaded the temperate Great Fish River catchment after the species was translocated from the Orange River through a Interbasin Water Transfer (IBWT) scheme (Laurenson et al. 1989). Potential threats include predation of and competition with indigenous species, habitat degradation, and the spread of diseases and parasites (Dudgeon et al. 2006).]]> Mon 13 May 2024 14:51:09 SAST ]]> Long-term catch and effort trends in Eastern Cape Angling Week competitions https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35711 Mon 13 May 2024 14:48:28 SAST ]]> Movement patterns and habitat selection of invasive African sharptooth catfish https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35767 Mon 13 May 2024 14:45:25 SAST ]]> Strength and Sprint Time Changes in Response to Repeated Shuttles Between the Wickets During Batting in Cricket https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35959 Mon 13 May 2024 14:25:29 SAST ]]> Asthenospheric and lithospheric sources for Mesozoic dolerites from Liberia (Africa): trace element and isotopic evidence https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:37887 Mon 13 May 2024 13:07:27 SAST ]]> MORB-related dolerites associated with the final phases of Karoo flood basalt volcanism in southern Africa. https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38222 Mon 13 May 2024 12:35:03 SAST ]]> Chemical archeoceanography: https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38801 Mon 13 May 2024 11:56:56 SAST ]]> Late Devonian charophytes from the Witteberg Group, South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:30106 Mon 13 May 2024 11:36:06 SAST ]]> A new species of Diplacanthus from the Late Devonian (Famennian) of South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:30237 Mon 13 May 2024 11:31:51 SAST ]]> Learning from the people : participatory rural appraisal, geography and rural development in the 'new' South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:6675 Mon 13 May 2024 09:49:28 SAST ]]> Water chemistry and effect of evapotranspiration on chemical sedimentation on the Mkuze River floodplain, South Africa: https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38340 Mon 13 May 2024 09:18:42 SAST ]]> Assessment of the long-term response to rehabilitation of two wetlands in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa: https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38345 Mon 13 May 2024 09:07:44 SAST ]]> Perceptions and preferences for urban trees across multiple socio-economic contexts in the Eastern Cape, South Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:42820 Mon 08 Aug 2022 05:14:47 SAST ]]> Some life-history parameters of the non-native amphipod Platorchestia platensis (Talitridae) in a warm temperate South African estuary https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35940 Fri 26 Apr 2024 12:44:02 SAST ]]> An endangered seahorse selectively chooses an artificial structure https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35486 Fri 26 Apr 2024 12:43:21 SAST ]]> Rapid recovery of macroinvertebrates in a South African stream treated with rotenone: https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:37915 Fri 26 Apr 2024 11:15:59 SAST ]]> Biogeographic and nearshore–offshore trends in isotope ratios of intertidal mussels and their food sources around the coast of southern Africa https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:6878 Fri 26 Apr 2024 10:46:05 SAST ]]> Effects of patch-size on populations of intertidal limpets, Siphonaria spp., in a linear landscape https://commons.ru.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:6845 60 m in length) were sampled.
