A new fossil piddock (Bivalvia: Pholadidae) may indicate estuarine to freshwater environments near Cretaceous amber-producing forests in Myanmar

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The lower Cenomanian Kachin amber from Myanmar contains a species-rich assemblage with numerous plant and animal fossils. Terrestrial and, to a lesser degree, freshwater species predominate in this assemblage, while a few taxa with marine affinities were

Lacustrine mollusc radiations in the Lake Malawi Basin : experiments in a natural laboratory for evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In terminal Pliocene-early Pleistocene times, part of the Malawi Basin was occupied by paleo-lake Chiwondo. Molluscan biostratigraphy situates this freshwater lake either in the East African wet phase between 2.7-2.4 Ma or that of 2.0-1.8 Ma.

Dead or alive: the effect of shells and living individuals of Sinanodonta woodiana (Lea, 1834) on habitat selection and behaviour of European unionid bivalves [PDF]

open access: yesNeoBiota
1. Ecosystem engineering freshwater bivalves, burrowing in the substratum and accumulating shell deposits, transform bottom habitats. Especially the invasive Asian bivalve Sinanodonta woodiana (SW), due to its rapid growth, large size, and high fecundity,

Assimilation of Cyanobacteria by the Freshwater Bivalve Nodularia douglasiae: Insights from Long-Term Laboratory and Field Feeding Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Water and Environment Technology, 2021
In this study, we conducted long-term laboratory and field feeding experiments to investigate the ability of a freshwater bivalve, Nodularia douglasiae (recently renamed to N. nipponensis) to utilize cyanobacterial cells as food.

The occurrence of the Asian Clam Corbicula fluminea in the lowe amazon basin [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 2003
This paper records for the first time the presence of Corbicula fluminea (Philipi, 1844) in the Brazilian Amazon Basin. This exotic bivalve was found in localities on the Amazonas, Pará and Tocantins rivers.

Freshwater bivalves rearing: a brief overview [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Aquatic Research, 2015
Freshwater bivalves farming is principally focused on freshwater pearl production in Asia and conservation aquaculture in USA while in Europe is almost completely unknown. High larval mortality is considered the bottleneck in freshwater bivalve larval rearing and methods currently used in marine bivalve larval rearing can be transferred in freshwater ...

Variation in the distribution of Corbicula species (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Corbiculidae) after 25 years of its introduction in the Río de la Plata, Argentina

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2018
In 1981, Corbicula fluminea (Müller, 1774) and C. largillierti (Philippi, 1844) were recorded at the Río de la Plata River. During the 1980’s, C. largillierti was found on a continuous fringe in the shore of that river, while C.

Ion Transport in the Freshwater Bivalve Corbicula fluminea [PDF]

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1998
In freshwater bivalves such as the mussel Corbicula fluminea, uptake of chloride depends on the external concentration of the chloride ion. In C. fluminea, Cl- uptake displayed saturation kinetics both in animals acclimated to pondwater and in those subjected to salt depletion by storage in deionized water.
