About
Eruban Shawdiv Naser is a conservation biologist whose work centers on the ecology and management of invasive aquatic species in South Asian wetlands. His most recognized contribution is a comprehensive review of invasive suckermouth catfishes (Loricariidae) in Bangladesh, a study that has already garnered 7 citations since its 2024 publication. This paper systematically documents the introduction, spread, and ecological devastation caused by these aquarium-turned-invasive fish, which were first reported in Bangladesh in 2008 after being introduced in the early 1980s. Naser’s work provides critical baseline data on the present status of these catfishes in rivers, lakes, and wetlands, while outlining the major challenges for control and mitigation. By synthesizing fragmented reports and highlighting the urgent need for management strategies, his research serves as a foundational resource for policymakers and ecologists tackling biological invasions in tropical freshwater systems. Naser’s focus on understudied invasive species in Bangladesh positions him as an emerging voice in South Asian invasion biology, with his work directly informing conservation efforts to protect native biodiversity and ecosystem health.
