Quantitative aspects of the life cycle of the freshwater shrimp Atyaephyra desmarestiiwere used to investigate its life span at the edge of its distribution area in Central Europe (Upper Rhine) for a period of three years. We estimated the proportion of the population surviving a second hibernation period. The appearance of ovigerous females in late spring was followed by a strong decline in the number of adults, the appearance of a high percentage of juveniles in late summer (0.58 ind./m 2), and their subsequent disappearance from the shore in winter. A small semivoltine cohort survived a second winter. The average life span was 12-15 (max. 29) months under laboratory conditions. In molecular studies (COX I), the Upper Rhine and Southern France populations clustered within the North Africa/West-Central Europe species clade. Due to its low productivity, this invasive species is unlikely to cause management problems.

The freshwater shrimp, Atyaephyra desmarestii (Millet, 1831) is redescribed on the basis of a topotypical population (Toulouse). Its original description by Millet (1831) is very short and inadequate. Concerning populations from the same area, no further descriptive information has been actually given. Specimens studied from a Belgian population (Ombret) did not show any important differences from the French ones.

The freshwater shrimp, Atyaephyra rosiana De Brito Capello, 1867 is redescribed on the basis of a population (Algarve, Portugal) close to the topotypical area and a neotype is designated for this species. Its original description by De Brito Capello (1867) is very short and inadequate. A detailed comparison of the neotypes of A. rosiana and Atyaephyra desmarestii (Millet, 1831) revealed the presence of key morphological features that clearly distinguish these species from each other.\
