Alien species The Australian tubeworm Ficopomatus enigmaticus is a tube building polychaete worm with a presumable origin in the Southern Hemisphere. The tubeworm needs a hard substrate to attach to. High densities of the Australian tubeworm can form reef like structures reaching dimensions of 4 meters in width and more than 2 meters in height.The species would have reached Belgian regions through attachment on ship’s hulls, via ballast water or together with the transportation of molluscs. The Australian tubeworm was observed for the first time in Belgium in 1950 at the Ostend harbour, on the hull of a marine research vessel. Many see these worms as a pest because they form reefs on ships and harbour infrastructures. However along the Belgian coast Australian tubeworm reefs are yet to appear… [details]

Introduced species remark Argentinean part of the South Atlantic Ocean (Marine Region) Mesocosms experiments showed that nutrient supply increased the Chla concentration, but when reefs were added, the Chla decreased. Thus, nutrients increased the phytoplankton biomass but grazing by the reefs counteracted these increments. This indicates that an invader such as F. enigmaticus mightmodulate an anthropogenic impact via suspension feeding, and therefore its role in mitigate the consequences of eutrophication may be highly important.
