Refer to the work entitled " MONITORING OF SPECIFIC BIODIVERSITY AND PRELIMINARY UPDATE INVENTORY OF ALIEN SPECIES FROM BIZERTE COASTAL AND LAGOON WATERS", 1st Mediterranean Symposium on the Non-Indigenous Species (Antalya, Turkey, 17-18 January 2019) which indicates the suspicions of the species presence (see annexe, Tab.1 for Portunus segnis: "Suspicions of its presence but no evidence yet" )
