Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 8, August 2025.ABSTRACT Freshwater mussels are in decline worldwide, and their conservation is limited by a lack of understanding of species ecology and biology, particularly in the southern hemisphere. Hyridella narracanensis is a threatened species which is co‐distributed with a more abundant congener, H. drapeta.

Dry season refuges, refugia and flow‐regime change in Mediterranean climate streams
Freshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 11, Page 1607-1626, November 2024.Abstract Climate change is causing stream flow regimes to change in many regions globally, including southwestern Australia (SWA) where many perennial streams have switched to intermittent flow regimes. In drier landscapes, ecological refuges and evolutionary refugia will become critical for conserving freshwater biodiversity.

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Accurate phylogenetic reconstructions are crucial for comprehending the evolutionary histories, reproductive traits, and ecological habits of organisms. The subfamily Gonideinae of freshwater mussels is currently thought to include eight tribes. However, due to inadequate taxon sampling and molecular data, the assignment of the freshwater mussel genus ...
