Studies, Assessments and Management Plans Expansion of tubenose gobies Proterorhinus semilunaris into western Lake Erie and potential effects on native species (2011) Biol Invasions (2011) 13:2775–2784 Kocovsky, P.M., J.A. Tallman, D.J. Jude, D.M. Murphy, J.E. Brown, and C.A. Stepien. This study reports on the range expansion of tubenose gobies into new habitats in western Lake Erie. The authors discuss the genetic origins of the fish, the potential for future range expansion, mechanisms for expansion, and possible effects on native species. Metazoan Parasites of Introduced Round and Tubenose Gobies in the Great Lakes: Support for the "Enemy Release Hypothesis" (2008) Journal of Great Lakes Research Y. Kvach and C. A. Stepien. (Abstract) This study shows support for the "Enemy Release Hypothesis," or the idea that newly established non-native species may be free of their native parasites, increasing the chance of population success. Authors compared the parasite load of invasive gobies in the Great Lakes with those in their native Eurasian habitats. Mitochondrial DNA analysis of round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) and tubenose goby (Proterorhinus marmoratus) in the Great Lakes basin (1996) Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Dougherty, John D., William S. Moore, and Jeffrey L. Ram. Authors of this study used the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene to examine several aspects of the invading goby population, including genetic diversity, the existence of source populations in the Black Sea, and phylogenetic relationships within the Gobiidae family. Round and Tubenose Goby Parasites (2009) University of Toledo This study analyzed the parasites of two exotic Eurasian gobies established in the Great Lakes since 1990: the round goby, Apollonia melanostoma and the tubenose goby, Proterorhinus semilunaris. Tubenose Goby Phylogeny (2007) University of Toledo This study conducted an analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences and morphological characters from exotic Great Lakes as well as introduced and native Eurasian population sites of Proterorhinus marmoratus (Pallas). This broad scale study was the first comprehensive examination of the species’ characters across its range.
