Abstract
    During 2006, two new invasive species, namely the Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus and the brackish water clam Rangia cuneata (Atlantic Rangia) have been recorded. When discovered both species had already formed well-established populations. All introduced species that were reported during previous years are still present and seem to be well-established and thriving.
