Download or read book The Freshwater Mussels of Ohio written by G. Thomas Watters and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early nineteenth century, a naturalist named Rafinesque stood on the banks of the Ohio River and began to describe the freshwater mussels he found there. Since that time, these animals have earned a place among the most imperiled animals in North America. Dozens of species have become extinct, and it is estimated that two-thirds of the remaining freshwater mussels face a similar fate. Yet, despite their importance, the mussels of Ohio remain a poorly documented and largely mysterious fauna. This book compiles existing research on Ohio's mussels, synthesizing works on genetics, biology, and systematics into one volume. Full-page color images depict shell variation, hinge detail, and beak sculpture. Full-page maps show the distribution of each species based upon the collections of numerous museums, with historical distributions dating from the 1800s. In addition to species accounts, the book has an introductory section that includes information on basic biology, human use, and conservation issues.--adapted from jacket.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study is a continuation of the Corp's effort to evaluate mussel populations, particularly rare or Endangered species, in channel maintenance areas and to determine mitigative alternatives to minimize any possible deleterious impacts. Thirty-two sites in the USACOE Rock Island District of the Mississippi River were examined in 1979 and 1980. Twenty-nine of these sites had a history of channel maintenance activity or were scheduled for maintenance operations in the near future. In addition, three areas supporting commercially valuable mussel beds were surveyed for comparative purposes. Primary emphasis at each survey area was placed on documenting the occurrance of special status species. Special status species include: (1) mussels which are now listed as federally protected Endangered species; (2) mussels under Notice of Review for possible addition of the U.S. List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; or (3) rare species which may occur in the Mississippi River. The nationally Endangered species L. higginsii, Lampsilis orbiculata and Proptera (=Potamilus) capax; the species under Notice of Review, Cumberlandia monodonta and Leptodea leptodon; and the rarely collected species Simpsoniconcha ambigua are mussels which have been recorded in this region of the Mississippi River and quality as special status species. Keywords: Pelecypoda, Unionacea.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freshwater mussels are an imperiled group of organisms that are vital to our aquatic ecosystems. Services performed by freshwater mussels, coupled with their use for biomonitoring, make them an invaluable asset. Neogobius melanostomus (Round Goby), a recently introduced invasive species to the French Creek watershed, was once restricted to the watershed of Lake Erie in Pennsylvania. Their propensity to consume Dreissena polymorpha (Zebra mussel) and Dreissena bugensis (Quagga mussel) in their native habitat raises concerns about this recent introduction into the Allegheny watershed. French Creek is home to one of the most diverse assemblages of fishes and mussels in the northeast and the impacts of this recent introduction could be far reaching. The three main objectives of this study were: 1to gather base line data on mussel distribution and abundances across 8 sites on French Creek. 2 to examine mussel immigration, emigration, and abundances. 3 to examine substrate particle size and host availability as limiting factors of mussel distribution in French Creek. Over the duration of the study, 21 species of mussels were captured over 8 sample sites. The number of species at sites ranged from 0-19 with a mode of 7 species per site. In addition, 66 different known-host and non-host species of fishes and amphibians were collected over the 8 sample sites. The number of known-host species at a site ranged between 22 and 38 with a mode of 22. Initial results from principal component analyses showed no significant difference (p>0.05) in substrate particle size classes by weight among the 8 sample sites. There was a significant difference (p
