Twenty non-indigenous fish species were recorded in the Danube River.
The manner of their introduction, vectors, pathways, well as invasive
status are discussed. The major modes of introduction and translocation
were found to be aquaculture and fish stocking. The main environmental
consequences of the spread of alien fish are related to changes in the
structure and functioning of the fish community and to the introduction
of non-indigenous parasites.
