About
Ahasan Habib is a conservation biologist whose research focuses on the ecology and management of invasive species in Bangladesh’s freshwater ecosystems. His most cited work, a 2024 review on invasive suckermouth catfishes (Loricariidae), has already garnered 7 citations, highlighting its immediate impact on the field. The paper systematically documents the introduction of these aquarium fish in the 1980s, their first recorded escape into the wild in 2008, and their subsequent devastating spread across Bangladeshi rivers, lakes, and wetlands. By synthesizing the present status and outlining the immense ecological and economic challenges posed by this invasion, Habib provides a critical baseline for future management strategies. His work is essential reading for researchers and policymakers grappling with biological invasions in South Asia, offering a clear-eyed assessment of a rapidly worsening threat to regional biodiversity and fisheries.
