Curator: The Museum Journal, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 355-378, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Natural history collections assembled before modern‐day, anthropogenic declines in species occurrence and abundance can provide essential data for conservation and biogeographic research. Digitizing old, commonly ‘orphaned’ collections in small institutions without professional curators increases local community access to specimens, as well as

The Impact of Exploitation on Freshwater Mussels (Bivalvia: Hyriidae) in the Tocantins River, Brazil [PDF]
Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2001 Freshwater mussels in the Tocantins River are exploited for their shells to make buttons. Data were collected on mussel density, size frequency distribution, habitat and exploitation level at five sites. The most abundant species is Paxyodon syrmatophorus (Meuschen, 1781) and is preferred by fishermen.

Gloquídio de Diplodon martensi (lhering) (Mollusca, Bivalvia, Hyriidae) e seu ciclo parasitário [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Zoologia, 1999 Conchological and anatomical studies of the glochidium of Diplodon martensi (lhering, 1893) were performed on samples collected in a small river, tributary from the Cai River, that belong to the Jacui River sub-basin in south-eastern Brazil. The parasitic development of the glochidium was observed in laboratory on a small cichlid fish Gymnogeophagus ...

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Fine‐scale environmental drivers shape freshwater mollusc assemblages in urban semiarid rivers. We examined how substrate composition and water chemistry influence mollusc richness and abundance along a polluted stretch of a river in the Brazilian semiarid region. Surveys at five sites recorded 2479 individuals.
