Conclusion
The success of any harvest incentive program to address aquatic invasive species will depend upon numerous biological, socioeconomic, and legal considerations. Programs that encourage harvest may be a successful management tool in targeting small, distinct populations; in high priority areas within a larger invasion; or they may play a supplementary role within larger control programs. Their use, however, will require careful review, planning, and monitoring to ensure success and that they do not unintentionally lead to further spread of invasive species, cause additional harm to native species, or waste valuable resources.

Nebraska Invasive Species Program
There are five crayfishes native to Nebraska. These are:
Orconectes immunis (papershell crayfish)
Orconectes virilis (northern crayfish)
Orconectes neglectus neglectus (ringed crayfish)
Cambarus diogenes (Devil crayfish)
Procambarus gracilis (prairie crayfish)
Three additional non-native crayfishes have also been found here:
Orconectes rusticus (rusty crayfish) [bait tanks and established in two ponds in Omaha]
Procambarus clarkii (red swamp crayfish) [bait tanks]
Procambarus acutus (White River crayfish) [bait tanks]
I will attempt here to provide a photographic guide to field identification, one species per page.
