Influence of intracellular toxin concentrations on cylindrospermopsin bioaccumulation in a freshwater gastropod (Melanoides tuberculata) [PDF]

open access: yesToxicon, 2006
Scant information is available regarding the bioaccumulation of cylindrospermopsin (CYN) in aquatic organisms, particularly in invertebrates. This study examined toxin bioconcentration and bioaccumulation in the aquatic snail, Melanoides tuberculata, following exposure to freeze-thawed whole cell extracts and a live Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii ...

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

Habitat Structure Shapes Mollusc Assemblages in an Urban Semiarid River: Implications for Conservation and Public Health

open access: yesAquatic 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.

Removing invasive stream macrofauna shifts nontarget invertebrate mesofauna through facilitation

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Positive interactions among non‐native species can drive invasional meltdowns to the detriment of native biota. Here, we assessed whether targeted control of aquatic invasive species (AIS) can benefit native species by eliminating synergies among invaders.
