Micrdfilms International 300 N INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “ target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For illustrations that cannot be satisfactorily reproduced by xerographic means, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and inserted into your xerographic copy. These prints are available upon request from the Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases the best available copy has been filmed. University Micrdfilms International 300 N.

Stansbery, Adviser Dr. Ted M. Cavender Dr. Barry D. Valentine Advi ser Department of Zoology ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In my mind this document would not be complete without the grateful acknowledgement of contributions made by others. The taxonomic breadth of this survey would have been considerably more narrow had it not been for the assistance of many collectors. Their names appear in the Appendix; however, those citations do not include sufficient indication of the personal time and expense they gave to this project. The extended collecting trip to Alabama and surrounding states was made possible by receipt of a Mary H. Osburn Memorial Fund Summer Fellowship from the Graduate School of The Ohio State University. This also is an appropriate place to thank Dr. David H. Stansbery for the wealth of malacological and ecological information he has helped me learn during the last 20 years. In more recent years, Tennessee Valley Authority staff members Ben Jaco, Gordon Hall and, lately, Billy Carroll have refused to let me forget that this task was incomplete and made time and resources available to support it. Agency professionals Dr. William C. (Clay) Barr and Thomas A. McDonough patiently assisted with the statistical analyses and interpretations, at times serving largely as informed sounding boards to help me develop my ideas. Back at Ohio State, Dr. Ted M. Cavender asked thought-provoking questions and made several suggestions that substan­ tially improved the quality of this report. Finally, there is my wife Carolyn. She collected specimens, helped prepare slides, contributed useful suggestions, provided financial support, and typed and proofread the manuscript. Her encouragement and technical help have been extremely important in bringing this long-standing project to completion. iii VITA October 16, 1942 ......................

  • Mass Mortality in Freshwater Mussels (Actinonaias Pectorosa) in the Clinch River, USA, Linked to a Novel Densovirus Jordan C
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mass mortality in freshwater mussels (Actinonaias pectorosa) in the Clinch River, USA, linked to a novel densovirus Jordan C. Richard1,3, Eric Leis2, Christopher D. Dunn3, Rose Agbalog1, Diane Waller4, Susan Knowles5, Joel Putnam4 & Tony L. Goldberg3,6* Freshwater mussels (order Unionida) are among the world’s most biodiverse but imperiled taxa. Recent unionid mass mortality events around the world threaten ecosystem services such as water fltration, nutrient cycling, habitat stabilization, and food web enhancement, but causes have remained elusive. To examine potential infectious causes of these declines, we studied mussels in Clinch River, Virginia and Tennessee, USA, where the endemic and once-predominant pheasantshell (Actinonaias pectorosa) has sufered precipitous declines since approximately 2016. Using metagenomics, we identifed 17 novel viruses in Clinch River pheasantshells. However, only one virus, a novel densovirus (Parvoviridae; Densovirinae), was epidemiologically linked to morbidity. Clinch densovirus 1 was 11.2 times more likely to be found in cases (moribund mussels) than controls (apparently healthy mussels from the same or matched sites), and cases had 2.7 (log10) times higher viral loads than controls. Densoviruses cause lethal epidemic disease in invertebrates, including shrimp, cockroaches, crickets, moths, crayfsh, and sea stars. Viral infection warrants consideration as a factor in unionid mass mortality events either as a direct cause, an indirect consequence of physiological compromise, or a factor interacting with other biological and ecological stressors to precipitate mortality. Freshwater mussels (order Unionida) are important members of freshwater biomes, providing ecosystem services such as water fltration, nutrient cycling and deposition, physical habitat stabilization, and food web enhancement1.

We collected data on a recently reintroduced population of federally endangered Epioblasma capsaeformis and two nonlisted, naturally occurring species—Actinonaias pectorosa and Medionidus conradicus—in the Upper Clinch River, Virginia, over two years using systematic quadrat and CMR sampling. Both sampling approaches produced similar estimates of abundance; however, precision of estimates varied between approaches, years, and among species, and further, quadrat sampling efficiency of mussels detectable on the substrate surface varied among species. CMR modeling revealed that capture probabilities for all three study species varied by time and were positively associated with shell length, that E. capsaeformis detection was influenced by sex, and that year-to-year apparent survival was high (>96%) for reintroduced E.

  • Pulmonate Snail Survey and Status in the Jordan River, UT, 2014

Richards, Ph.D. OreoHelix Consulting P. O. Box 996 Moab, UT 84532 Phone: 406.580.7816 Email: [email protected] May 20, 2015 Unionoida Mussel and Non- Pulmonate Snail Survey and Status in the Jordan River, UT SUMMARY North America supports the richest diversity of freshwater mollusks on the planet. Although the western USA is relatively mollusk depauperate, the one exception is the rich molluskan fauna of the Bonneville Basin area, including drainages that enter terminal Great Salt Lake (e.g. Utah Lake, Jordan River, Bear River, etc.). There are at least seventy freshwater mollusk taxa reported from UT, many of which are endemics to the Bonneville Basin and their evolution and distribution are strongly linked with the geological and geomorphic history of pluvial Lake Bonneville. These mollusk taxa serve vital ecosystem functions and are truly a Utah natural heritage. Unfortunately, freshwater mollusks are also the most imperiled animal groups in the world; including those found in UT. Despite this unique and irreplaceable natural heritage, the taxonomy, distribution, status, and ecologies of Utah’s freshwater mollusks are poorly known. Very few mollusk specific surveys have been conducted in UT. In addition, specialized training, survey methods, and identification of freshwater mollusks are required. EPA recently recommended changes in freshwater ammonia criteria based primarily on sensitive freshwater mollusks, including non-pulmonate snails and unionid taxa found in the eastern USA.

We recognize a total of 298 species in 55 genera in the families Margaritiferidae (one genus, five species) and Unionidae (54 genera, 293 species). We propose one change in the Margaritiferidae: the placement of the formerly monotypic genus Cumberlandia in the synonymy of Margaritifera. In the Unionidae, we recognize three new genera, elevate four genera from synonymy, and place three previously recognized genera in synonymy.
