  • Changes in Freshwater Mussel Populations of the Ohio River: 1,000 BP to Recent Times1
    Changes in Freshwater Mussel Populations of the Ohio River: 1,000 BP to Recent Times1 RALPH W. TAYLOR, Department of Biological Sciences, Marshall University, Huntington, WV 25701 ABSTRACT. Through the use of literature records and new data, it was possible to compile a list of species of freshwater mussels that inhabited the upper Ohio River (Ohio River Mile [ORM] 0-300) around a thou- sand years ago. This information was derived from specimens found associated with Indian middens lo- cated along the banks of the Ohio. Analysis of these data indicates that at least 31 species of mussels were present in the river. Arnold Ort- mann recorded 37 species from the same area as a result of his many years of collecting around the turn of the 20th century. Thirty-three species have been collectively documented as currently residing in limited numbers in the river. The number of species present has remained essentially unchanged through time. There have been, however, significant changes in species composition and total numbers of individual mus- sels present. Occasionally, healthy populations can be found presently but much of the upper Ohio River is devoid of mussel life. Several large-river species have become established in this reach of the river as a con- sequence of damming and the resulting increase in depth, greater siltation and slowed rate of flow. Seven- teen species known to have previously inhabited the upper Ohio River are listed as presumed to no longer survive there. OHIO J. SCI. 89 (5): 188-191, 1989 INTRODUCTION and Dam in 1976, coupled with the current expansion For thousands of years, the Ohio River flowed freely of Gallipolis Locks and Dam, it appears that the present for nearly 1,000 mi — from its origin at the junction of series of high-rise dams (12 ft [3 m] navigation channel) the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers to its conflu- will meet the barge traffic needs well into the 21st cen- ence with the Mississippi River.

    2006. Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 1 15(2): 103- 109 CURRENT STATUS OF FRESHWATER MUSSELS (ORDER UNIONOIDA) IN THE WABASH RIVER DRAINAGE OF INDIANA Brant E. Fisher: Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Atterbury Fish & Wildlife Area, 7970 South Rowe Street, P.O. Box 3000, Edinburgh, Indiana 46124 USA ABSTRACT. Seventy-five species of freshwater mussels (Order Unionoida) have historically inhabited the Wabash River drainage of Indiana. Nine of these species have always been restricted to Wabash River tributaries and never maintained reproducing populations in the mainstem Wabash River. Of the 66 re- maining species, 18 are currently considered extirpated from the entire drainage and 18 maintain repro- ducing populations only in Wabash River tributaries. Currently, 30 species maintain reproducing popula- tions in the mainstem Wabash River, which represents a 55% reduction in its freshwater mussel fauna. To date, the entire Wabash River drainage of Indiana has seen a 24% reduction in its freshwater mussel fauna.

    Tennessee Natural Heritage Program Rare Species Observations For Tennessee Counties This document provides lists of rare species known to occur within each of Tennessee's counties. If you are viewing the list in its original digital format and you have an internet connection, you may click the scientific names to search the NatureServe Explorer Encyclopedia of Life for more detailed species information. The following lists were last updated in July 2009 and are based on rare species observations stored in the Tennessee Natural Heritage Biotics Database maintained by the TDEC Natural Heritage Program. For definitions of ranks and protective status, or for instructions on obtaining a site specific project review, please visit our website: http://state.tn.us/environment/na/data.shtml If you need assistance using the lists or interpreting data, feel free to contact us: Natural Heritage Program Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation 7th Floor L&C Annex 401 Church Street Nashville, Tennessee 37243 (615) 532-0431 The lists provided are intended for use as planning tools. Because many areas of the state have not been searched for rare species, the lists should not be used to determine the absence of rare species. The lists are best used in conjunction with field visits to identify the types of rare species habitat that may be present at a given location. For projects that are located near county boundaries or are in areas of the state that have been under-surveyed (particularly in western Tennessee), we recommend that you check rare species lists for adjacent counties or watersheds as well.
