In South America, many introductions of species of this genus have already taken place, including reports of hybridization between them. Now, the occurrence of the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis is reported for the first time from the Brazilian coast. Several specimens of this mytilid were found in a shellfish growing areas in Florianópolis and Palhoça, Santa Catarina State, Brazil. -
List of Bivalve Molluscs from British Columbia, Canada
List of Bivalve Molluscs from British Columbia, Canada Compiled by Robert G. Forsyth Research Associate, Invertebrate Zoology, Royal BC Museum, 675 Belleville Street, Victoria, BC V8W 9W2; [email protected] Rick M. Harbo Research Associate, Invertebrate Zoology, Royal BC Museum, 675 Belleville Street, Victoria BC V8W 9W2; [email protected] Last revised: 11 October 2013 INTRODUCTION Classification rankings are constantly under debate and review. The higher classification utilized here follows Bieler et al. (2010). Another useful resource is the online World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS; Gofas 2013) where the traditional ranking of Pteriomorphia, Palaeoheterodonta and Heterodonta as subclasses is used. This list includes 237 bivalve species from marine and freshwater habitats of British Columbia, Canada. Marine species (206) are mostly derived from Coan et al. (2000) and Carlton (2007). Freshwater species (31) are from Clarke (1981). Common names of marine bivalves are from Coan et al. (2000), who adopted most names from Turgeon et al. (1998); common names of freshwater species are from Turgeon et al. (1998). Changes to names or additions to the fauna since these two publications are marked with footnotes. Marine groups are in black type, freshwater taxa are in blue. Introduced (non-indigenous) species are marked with an asterisk (*). Marine intertidal species (n=84) are noted with a dagger (†). Quayle (1960) published a BC Provincial Museum handbook, The Intertidal Bivalves of British Columbia. Harbo (1997; 2011) provided illustrations and descriptions of many of the bivalves found in British Columbia, including an identification guide for bivalve siphons and “shows”. Lamb & Hanby (2005) also illustrated many species. -

PCBs 118, 138, and 153 were the dominant congeners in all the species examined. The concentrations of all PCBs (from not detectable to 15,427 ng gϪ1 fat weight) exceeded those of all the DDTs (from not detectable to 1,769 ng gϪ1 fat weight) and HCB (not detectable to 150.60 ng gϪ1 fat weight) in the samples analyzed. The OCP concentrations were below the maximum residue limits established for fish and aquatic products by the Decreto Minis- terale 13 May 2005 in all the samples analyzed; therefore the OCPs in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea species are unlikely to be a significant health hazard. -
Bivalve Mollusc Exploitation in Mediterranean Coastal Communities: an Historical Approach

All bivalve species mentioned in the classical texts were identified on the basis of modern taxonomy. The study of the works by Aristotle, Hippocrates, Xenocrates, Galen, Dioscorides and Athenaeus showed that out of the 35 exploited marine invertebrates recorded in the texts, 20 were molluscs, among which 11 bivalve names were included. These data examined under the light of recent information on bivalve exploitation showed that the diet of ancient Greeks in- cluded the same bivalve species consumed nowadays in the coastal areas of the Mediterranean. The habitats of the exploited bivalves and consequently their fishing areas were well known and recorded in the classical texts. Information on the morphology and various aspects of the biolo- gy of certain edible species was given mostly in Aristotle’s zoological works, while Xenocrates and Athenaeus presented instructions and recipes on how bivalves were cooked and served. -

Global Connectivity Patterns of the Notoriously Invasive Mussel, Mytilus Galloprovincialis Lmk Using Archived CO1 Sequence Data Thomas Pickett and Andrew A
Pickett and David BMC Res Notes (2018) 11:231 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13104-018-3328-3 BMC Research Notes RESEARCH NOTE Open Access Global connectivity patterns of the notoriously invasive mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk using archived CO1 sequence data Thomas Pickett and Andrew A. David* Abstract Objective: The invasive mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis has established invasive populations across the globe and in some regions, have completely displaced native mussels through competitive exclusion. The objective of this study was to elucidate global connectivity patterns of M. galloprovincialis strictly using archived cytochrome c oxidase 1 sequence data obtained from public databases. Through exhaustive mining and the development of a systematic workfow, we compiled the most comprehensive global CO1 dataset for M. galloprovincialis thus far, consisting of 209 sequences representing 14 populations. Haplotype networks were constructed and genetic diferentiation was assessed using pairwise analysis of molecular variance. Results: There was signifcant genetic structuring across populations with signifcant geographic patterning of haplotypes. In particular, South Korea, South China, Turkey and Australasia appear to be the most genetically isolated populations. However, we were unable to recover a northern and southern hemisphere grouping for M. galloprovin- cialis as was found in previous studies. These results suggest a complex dispersal pattern for M. galloprovincialis driven by several contributors including both natural and anthropogenic dispersal mechanisms along with the possibility of potential hybridization and ancient vicariance events. Keywords: Invasions, Population, Dispersal, Haplotype, Mytilidae Introduction costs continues to decline, public data banks that archive Quantifying dispersal in marine environments has been sequences are growing at an exponential rate [3]. -

20 Culture of Mussels (Mytilus Spp.) and Mussel Fisheries
20 Culture of Mussels (Mytilus spp.) and Mussel Fisheries A bed of sea mussels, Mytilus californianus, in the intertidal zone at Trinidad State Beach (Humboldt County). Photo credit: John Mello. History The use of mussels of the genus Mytilus for food in California extends back over 10,000 years as they are the most common shellfish found in island and coastal middens. More recently, mussels have fluctuated in importance in California’s commercial and recreational shellfish fisheries for food and bait since the early 1900s. The extent of the recreational harvest has largely remained unknown but commercial landings have been recorded since 1916. Experiments in culturing wild seed stock and in developing hatchery and grow out methods in the 1980s have greatly increased the importance of aquacultural mussel production, particularly the Mediterranean mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis, which occurs primarily in southern and south central California. A related species, the Baltic mussel, M. trossulus, is recreationally harvested in northern California and hybrids of the two species are commonly found between Cape Mendocino (Humboldt County) and Monterey Bay. The California mussel, M. californianus, is of minor economic importance in California at present, though it is taken by recreational harvesters. It is primarily used as bait along the west coast, but in the 1980s, wild harvested sea mussels, highly esteemed by gourmet chefs in Oregon, were sold to fine restaurants in Portland. More recently, landings of sea mussels for food have been negligible. Between 1916 and 1927, the commercial fishery landed a total of over 470,000 pounds (213 metric tons) of mussels, ranging from 9000 pounds (4 metric tons) to 69,000 pounds (31 metric tons) per year in California.
