Komentar | In general, eels caught in California waters are believed to have been imported by Japanese or Chinese restaurants, or fish farms, and eels escaped or were released (Ref. 10760). Introduction also attributed to ballast-water transport (including attributions to transport in bilge water or other seawater systems) from Western Europe (Ref. 37896). Ref: Williamson, G.R. and O. Tabeta, 1991 |
