| Abstract: | The results obtained indicate the potential of the round goby to reproduce in fresh water, which may result in further expansion of the species to upper reaches of rivers and to other water bodies (lakes, dam reservoirs). Embryonic development of the round goby in fresh water proceeded in a regular manner. However, embryonic development in fresh water took a shorter time than in saline water. Although the newly hatched larvae were somewhat smaller than those hatching from eggs kept in saline water, the hatching rate was high (90%). If the species finds conditions suitable for reproduction in Polish freshwater bodies, it may pose a threat to numerous native freshwater fish species by taking over both their feeding and reproductive niches. |
