The Dodecanese region with sampling stations at Kalymnos and Nysiros islands
The region of north-east Aegean Sea with sampling stations at Samos and Lesvos islands
Attica and Saronic Gulf, that is considered as a hot-spot area for non-indigenous and invasive species for the west Aegean Sea.
The region of south Cyclades with sampling stations at Santorini Island
The Ionian islands with sampling stations at Kefalonia Island
The region of Peloponnese was extensively surveyed, via SCUBA diving. It seems that Peloponnese is a region that plays a pivotal role on the expansion of alien and invasive species to the Ionian Sea and to central Mediterranean coasts.
