Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #47274 July Prediction Lionfish
Instructions
"Until  now,  few    of  the  alien  lionfish  Pterois  miles  have  been  reported  in  the  Mediterranean  and  it  was    whether  the  species  could  invade  this  region  like  it  has  in  the  western  Atlantic."  Demetris  Kletou,  co-author  of  the  paper  said  in  a  statement.  "But  we've  found  that  lionfish  have  recently    in  abundance,  and  within  a  year  have  colonized  almost  the  entire  south  eastern  coast  of  Cyprus,  assisted  by  sea  surface  warming."  Lionfish  were  originally  found  in  the  waters  of  the  Pacific  and  lndian  Oceans.  They  likely  ended  up  in  the  Caribbean  and  Western  Atlantic  after    from  home  aquariums.  The  invasion  of  the  Mediterranean  has  different  roots.  The  expansion  of  the  Suez  Canal  has  given  lionfish  even  more  access  to  the  Mediterranean  Sea  and  warming  water  temperatures  have  provided  the    environment  for  the  invasive  species.
