Comparing reef structure and mobile species assemblages at remnant and restored mussel reefs

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
Mussel restoration aims to replicate natural processes of reef establishment. The similarities in mussel reef structure and large mobile species communities observed between remnant and restored mussel reefs in this study provide evidence that, in the absence of intact systems, remnant mussel reefs adjacent to temperate rocky reefs may be suitable as ...

Geographically Widespread Drift Log Destruction of Intertidal Communities on Rocky Shores of Western Canada

Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT The destructive effect of drift logs on several rocky shore intertidal communities first identified in 1971 by Dayton in the north‐east Pacific Ocean has received little further attention despite its ecological and conservational significance.

Sea otter interactions with mariculture oyster farms

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 6, August 2025.
Despite concerns about sea otter (Enhydra lutris) interactions with oyster farms in Alaska, our study found no significant differences in general activity or prey selection between farm and non‐farm areas. However, sea otter prey intake rates varied spatially, with clams, mussels, and crabs dominating their diet.

Cytogenetic characterisation of the razor shells "Ensis directus" (Conrad, 1843) and "E. minor" (Chenu, 1843) (Mollusca: Bivalvia) [PDF]

, 2012
[Abstract] The European razor shell Ensis minor (Chenu 1843) and the American E. directus (Conrad 1843) have a diploid chromosome number of 38 and remarkable differences in their karyotypes: E.

Non‐Native Species in Aquaculture: Burgeoning Production and Environmental Sustainability Risks

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Rising global food demands and technological advancements have led to unprecedented growth in the aquaculture industry. This rapid expansion has facilitated the translocation of species beyond their native ranges. While farming non‐native species boosts global food supply, it also poses environmental and socio‐economic risks when escapees ...

Can the Movement of the Deep‐Sea Bivalve Acesta excavata Lead to a Dynamic Habitat?

Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Acesta excavata is one of the largest and ecologically relevant bivalves along continental margins and is often associated with cold‐water coral assemblages of the upper bathyal zone. Like other habitat‐forming species, A. excavata contributes to increasing the secondary substrata and provides opportunities for the colonization and feeding of ...

Anatomia funcional de Mytella charruana (d'Orbigny, 1846) (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)

Boletim de Zoologia, 1983
Mytella charruana (d’Orbigny. 1846) ocorre no litoral Atlântico da Venezuela até a Argentina. Como adaptações principais ao meio lodoso, foram estudados neste trabalho i a motilidade e sensibilidade dos sifões, a presença de membrana sifonal, o tamanho e movimentação dos palpos, a ciliação nos ctemdeos e a estrutura do estômago. Os sifões são do tipo A

The Influence of Aquaculture and a Natural Environmental Gradient on Shell Landmark Variation of the Mediterranean Mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck, 1819) From the Eastern Adriatic Sea

Journal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 4, April 2025.
We used geometric morphometry to identify shell landmark differentiation in the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis across the eastern Adriatic Sea. The results revealed that an elongated shell shape was particularly characteristic of southern populations and those from environments with lower salinity concentrations.
