Herbert D. Athearn and the Museum of Fluviatile Mollusks
Herbert D. Athearn (1923–2011) was an avid student of freshwater mollusks. He named his private shell collection “The Museum of Fluviatile Mollusks”, which was meticulously organized at his residence.

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates
Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common

LIFE-HISTORY PATTERNS IN THE BROODING FRESHWATER BIVALVE PISIDIUM (SPHAERIIDAE) [PDF]
Of all freshwater molluscs, the life history of sphaeriid bivalves has been one of the best studied, partly because they brood their young. In Pisidium, one of five genera in the Sphaeriidae, offspring develop and are released synchronously and therefore the reproductive state is easily determined from collections of adults.

Abstract Invasive zebra and quagga (dreissenid) mussels have disrupted nutrient cycling and benthic macrofauna communities in the Laurentian Great Lakes and other invaded ecosystems. Dreissenids are now the dominant benthic macroinvertebrate in the Great Lakes, replacing the formerly dominant native bioturbating amphipod Diporeia spp.

Salamander loss alters montane stream ecosystem functioning and structure through top‐down effects
Salamanders are seriously declining worldwide and, despite being important predators in both aquatic and terrestrial environments, their effects on freshwater ecosystems are virtually unknown. We demonstrated that salamander loss could alter montane stream ecosystem functioning and structure by reducing periphyton accrual, altering algal communities ...

ABSTRACT Understanding how invasive species affect the stability and function of ecosystems is critical for conservation. Here, we quantified the effect of an actively suppressed invasive species on the Yellowstone Lake ecosystem using a food web energetics approach.
