New Zealand Recent Hyriidae (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Unionida)

Molluscan Research, 2014
The New Zealand freshwater mussels are taxonomically revised and compared with key Australian and South American taxa using DNA sequence data. Three living species are recognised: Echyridella menziesii, Echyridella aucklandica and Echyridella onekaka. Cucumerunio websteri websteri and Cucumerunio websteri delli, are treated as junior synonyms of Unio ...

Upstream recolonization by freshwater mussels (Unionoida: Hyriidae) following installation of a fishway

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2017
Abstract Freshwater mussels provide important benefits to aquatic ecosystems by filtering water, bioturbating sediments, and cycling and transforming nutrients. The global decline in mussel diversity, distribution and abundance has led to concerns that ecological functioning in freshwater systems will be diminished.

Cryptic species and morphological plasticity in long‐lived bivalves (Unionoida: Hyriidae) from inland Australia

Molecular Ecology, 2003
AbstractMolecular (mitochondrial DNA, isozyme) and morphological diversity of freshwater mussels (Family Hyriidae) was examined at 21 sites encompassing four large river systems, across southwest Queensland, Australia. Evidence was found for two major morphological groups.

Comparative Morphometry and Morphology of Glochidial Shells of Amazonian Hyriidae (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Unionida)

American Malacological Bulletin, 2012
Abstract: The glochidia of Diplodon (Diplodon) suavidicus (Lea, 1856), D. (D.) obsolescens F. Baker, 1914, Diplodon (Rhipidodonta) hylaeus (d'Orbigny, 1835), Prisodon obliquus Schumacher, 1817, Paxyodon syrmatophorus (Meuschen, 1781), Triplodon corrugatus (Lamarck, 1819, and Castalia ambigua Lamarck, 1819 were redescribed based on comparisons of ...

Mitochondrial DNA phylogenetic structuring suggests similarity between two morphologically plastic genera of Australian freshwater mussels (Unionoida: Hyriidae)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2004
In the Lake Eyre Basin, the Australian hyriid genus Velesunio is represented by three undescribed species, each of which are highly divergent genetically, but morphologically similar to Velesunio wilsonii (Lea 1859). A fourth species, Velesunio ambiguus (Philippi 1847), occurs not only in the Lake Eyre Basin but throughout much of eastern Australia ...

Shape variation in the Australian freshwater mussel Alathyria jacksoni Iredale (Bivalvia, Hyriidae)

Hydrobiologia, 1991
Different forms of the hydriid mussel Alathyria jacksoni occur in riverine habitats of the Murray-Darling river system, south-eastern Australia. Electrophoretic data for three enzymes (glucose phosphate isomerase, malate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme) support the assumption that these are morphological variants of one species.
