Chloride Transport in Freshwater Mussels
Physiological Zoology, 1979Chloride transport in unionid bivalves is cation independent and is apparently an anion exchange system. The influx of Cl is highly correlated with the appearance of titratable base in the bathing medium. There is a substantial exchange diffusion component of Cl fluxes in these mussels.

Glochidial Mortality in Freshwater Mussels
2001A crucial factor in the reproduction of parasites is the rate of successful host infection. In most parasitic species subtle mechanisms for the effective transmission of infectious stages have evolved. These include vector transmission, highly mobile propagules that are able to locate and infect new hosts actively, attraction of hosts, extremely ...

There are representatives of at least 19 families that have at least one representative living in freshwater. This suggests at least 14 different invasions of freshwater. At least nine families have small to large radiations in the freshwater environment: Corbiculidae, Sphaeriidae,
