A dangerous flame on the island of Vis, and a Japanese beetle in Slovenia

A dangerous red sea urchin was spotted in the Stiniva Bay on the island of Vis, capable of causing severe pain, swelling, and breathing difficulties upon contact. Experts recommend submerging the affected area in water at 45°C before seeking medical attention. The species has been present in the Adriatic since 2019, and experts warn its spread may increase due to rising sea temperatures. Croatia has started organized efforts to remove it. Meanwhile, Japan beetles have been observed in Slovenia for the third consecutive year, posing a threat to plants. They likely arrived from northern Italy, a

V zalivu Stiniva na hrvaškem otoku Vis so opazili invazivno rdečemorsko plamenko. Njen vbod povzroča izjemno hude bolečine, v nekaterih primerih lahko povzroči tudi resne posledice, veliko grožnjo pa predstavlja tudi za lokalni ekosistem.

Oglaševanje

Na manj kot desetih metrih globine v zalivu Stiniva so opazili rdečemorsko plamenko (Pterois miles), je poročal Morski.hr.

To ribo so v Jadranu prvič opazili leta 2019. Hrvaški inštitut za oceanografijo in ribištvo je v preteklosti že opozoril , da je glede na dinamiko in trende širjenja toploljubnih vrst, povezanih s segrevanjem morja, pričakovati, da se bodo pojavljale vse pogosteje.

Žival se tako vse hitreje širi po Jadranskem morju, zaradi agresivnega plenjenja pa predstavlja vse večjo grožnjo domačim morskim vrstam in občutljivim ekosistemom. Hrvaška je zato začela izvajati prve organizirane aktivnosti za njen izlov .

Riba je užitna in celo zelo okusna

Rdečemorska plamenka je invazivna indijsko-pacifiška vrsta, ki se hrani z avtohtonimi vrstami rib in je znana po hitrem širjenju po Sredozemlju.

Vse njene bodice so strupene. Vbod povzroča izjemno hude bolečine, v nekaterih primerih lahko povzroči tudi resne posledice, zato je priporočljiv obisk zdravnika. Na Inštitutu za oceanografijo so pojasnili, da je tako kot pri drugih jadranskih ribah s strupenimi hrbtenicami strup občutljiv na vročino, kar pomeni, da ga lahko nevtraliziramo z vročino – najbolje tako, da se mesto vboda čim prej potopi v vodo s temperaturo med 40 in 45 stopinjami Celzija za 30 do 90 minut.

Rdečemorsko plamenko je pogosto mogoče opaziti v bližini podvodnih grebenov in manjših globinah, ki so dostopne podvodnim ribičem in rekreativnim potapljačem. Kljub temu da je riba nevarna, je užitna in po ocenah poznavalcev tudi odličnega okusa.

Vrsta v slovenskem morju še ni bila potrjeno zabeležena.

A dangerous tropical fish has been spotted on a popular Croatian island, and its sting causes excruciating pain

An invasive red sea lionfish (Pterois miles) has been spotted in the Stiniva Bay on the Croatian island of Vis. The fish, known for its venomous spines that cause severe pain and potentially serious consequences, poses a threat to local marine ecosystems due to its aggressive feeding habits. The species was first observed in the Adriatic Sea in 2019, and experts predict it will become more common as ocean temperatures rise. Croatia has begun organized efforts to remove the fish.
