Freshwater mussels (Mollusca, Bivalvia, Unionidae) of the Danube river basin of Ukraine

Zoodiversity, 2021
Despite the ongoing environmental problems, the basin of the Danube river is the least disturbed on the territory of Ukraine. Thus, its malacofauna is a nominal standard for the southern water systems of Central Europe.

Evolution of diverse host infection mechanisms delineates an adaptive radiation of lampsiline freshwater mussels centered on their larval ecology [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
North American watersheds contain a high diversity of freshwater mussels (Unionoida). During the long-lived, benthic phase of their life cycle, up to 40 species can co-occur in a single riffle and there is typically little evidence for major differences ...

Linking Phylogeny and Morphology to Resource Assimilation Within Aquatic Assemblages. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We examined how phylogeny and morphology affected resource assimilation patterns within aquatic assemblages, specifically freshwater mussels (Family: Uniondae). We found that (1) species identity and site influenced gill morphology and stable isotope signatures but that the trophic niche area of a species was only affected by species identity; (2) the ...
