A molecular phylogeny of the bivalve mollusks [PDF]
A phylogenetic reconstruction based on 506 nucleotides near the 5' end of the 18S subunit of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) in 2 gastropod, 3 chiton and 28 bivalve mollusks supported the monophyly and sister group relationship of the subclasses Heterodonta and Palaeoheterodonta but could not confidently establish either the monophyly or the phylogenetic ...

Mid-Neolithic exploitation of mollusks in the Guanzhong Basin of Northwestern China: preliminary results. [PDF]
Mollusk remains are abundant in archaeological sites in the Guanzhong Basin of Northwestern China, providing good opportunities for investigations into the use of mollusks by prehistoric humans. Here we report on freshwater gastropod and bivalve mollusks

Metallothioneins contribution to the response of bivalve mollusk to xenobiotics [PDF]
Estimation of cellular thiols metallothioneins (MTs) sensitivity to continuous pressure of environmental chemical ‘cocktail’ of xenobiotics needs investigation in correct model experiments.

Odontonia kerangcaris sp. nov., a new bivalve-associated shrimp (Crustacea, Decapoda, Palaemonidae) from East Kalimantan, revealing intrageneric host switching [PDF]
A new species of bivalve mollusk dwelling palaemonid shrimp of the genus Odontonia is described from the Berau Islands, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. This is the only Odontonia species recorded as a symbiont of a bivalve mollusk, all other congeners are ...
