Molecular Phylogeny and Biogeography of Spring-Associated Hydrobiid Snails of the Great Artesian Basin, Australia

Prominent and endangered components of the GAB spring community are snails of the family Hydro- biidae. This paper examines the evolutionary relationships of the entire hydrobiid fauna associated with the GAB, and includes appropriate non-GAB species to place the GAB fauna in a broader phylogenetic context. The Queensland genus Jardinella is a focus of this paper, providing a Wne scale examination of relationships between spring supergroups in the northeastern regions of the GAB. Maximum parsimony and Bayesian analyses performed on 16S, CO1, and combined sequence data from 40 hydrobiid taxa found four major clades of Australian taxa. The analysis revealed that at least three separate colonization events of the GAB spring fauna have occurred. Two of these are represented by considerable radiations, (1) Jardinella to the north and east and (2) Caldicochlea, Fonscochlea, and possibly Trochidrobia in South Australia.

Corresponding author: Gonzalo A. Collado, [email protected] Abstract The New Zealand mudsnail Potamopyrgus antipodarum (Gray, 1843) has been considered as one of the most invasive mollusks worldwide and recently was listed among the 50 most damaging species in Europe. In the present paper, we report for the first time the presence ofP. antipodarum in the Maule river basin, Chile. The identity of the species was based on anatomical microdissections, scanning electron microscopy comparisons, and DNA barcode analysis. This finding constitutes the southernmost record of the species until now in this country and SouthAmerica.

Aquatic Snails of the Snake and Green River Basins of Wyoming
Aquatic snails of the Snake and Green River Basins of Wyoming Lusha Tronstad Invertebrate Zoologist Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming 307-766-3115 [email protected] Mark Andersen Information Systems and Services Coordinator Wyoming Natural Diversity Database University of Wyoming 307-766-3036 [email protected] Suggested citation: Tronstad, L.M. and M. D. Andersen. 2018. Aquatic snails of the Snake and Green River Basins of Wyoming. Report prepared by the Wyoming Natural Diversity Database for the Wyoming Fish and Wildlife Department. 1 Abstract Freshwater snails are a diverse group of mollusks that live in a variety of aquatic ecosystems. Many snail species are of conservation concern around the globe. About 37-39 species of aquatic snails likely live in Wyoming. The current study surveyed the Snake and Green River basins in Wyoming and identified 22 species and possibly discovered a new operculate snail. We surveyed streams, wetlands, lakes and springs throughout the basins at randomly selected locations. We measured habitat characteristics and basic water quality at each site. Snails were usually most abundant in ecosystems with higher standing stocks of algae, on solid substrate (e.g., wood or aquatic vegetation) and in habitats with slower water velocity (e.g., backwater and margins of streams). We created an aquatic snail key for identifying species in Wyoming. The key is a work in progress that will be continually updated to reflect changes in taxonomy and new knowledge. We hope the snail key will be used throughout the state to unify snail identification and create better data on Wyoming snails.

Freshwater Molluscs
FRESHWATER MOLLUSCS Photo © Piotr Naskrecki Photo © Steven Buck, Illinois Natural History Survey BIODIVERSITY SAMPLING PROTOCOLS 185 RAPID BIOASSESSMENT METHODS FOR FRESHWATER MOLLUSCS Kevin S. Cummings1, Hugh A. Jones2 and Manuel Lopes-Lima3 Introduction Freshwater molluscs are found worldwide, occurring on all continents except Antarctica. There are approximately 1,200 species of freshwater bivalves, 97% of which belong to eight primary freshwater families: Unionidae, Margaritiferidae, Hyriidae, Mycetopodidae, Iridinidae, and Etheriidae (all Unionoida or freshwater mussels), Sphaeriidae, and Cyrenidae (both Veneroida) (Graf 2013). The world’s freshwater gastropod fauna comprises approximately 4,000 described species (Strong et al. 2008). Many species are globally imperiled and freshwater molluscs are considered to be the most threatened group of animals in the world (Williams et al. 1993; Lydeard et al. 2004; Johnson et al. 2013). Freshwater mussels (unionoids) are an integral component of aquatic ecosystems. Freshwater mussels can comprise >90% of the benthic biomass of rivers and an individual mussel can filter 40 L of water each day (Tankersley & Dimock 1993; Pusch et al. 2001; Strayer 2008). In addition, their shells function as substrate for many organisms including caddisflies, mayflies and other aquatic insects. Unionoids are often described as ecosystem engineers due to the direct and indirect physical effects that they have on freshwater ecosystems (Gutiérrez et al. 2003). Freshwater mussels also provide important direct services to humans, such as water purification, serving as an important prey for several mammals and commercial fishes, and providing a direct source of protein. Given their importance within aquatic ecosystems, the cascading consequences of unionoid declines can be considerable (Haag 2012; Vaughn et al.

They are all very similar, being separated on small differences in size and shape of the shells and Distribution of Austropyrgus tathraensis. Austropyrgus tathraensis (adult size 2.1-2.8 mm) in anatomical details. They have elongate-conic shells with adults having a slightly thickened aperture and the operculum bears several pegs. Like most species of Austropyrgus, it is geographically isolated and has a restricted range. This species is found around Bega and Tathra. Austropyrgus tathraensis is most similar to A. sparsus, A. wombeyanensis, A. buchanensis and A. abercrombiensis. t differs from A. sparsus in lacking a simple outer lip (i.e, it is not reflected).

Hydrobiidae Descriptions
An Ecological, Morphological and Molecular Investigation of Beddomeia Species (Gastropoda: Hydrobiidae) in Tasmania Karen Richards BScEd, Melbourne College of Advanced Education BAppSc (Hons), Deakin University A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Tasmania September 2010 ii Declaration This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma by the University or any other institution. To the best of my knowledge the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where acknowledgement is made in the text. Karen Richards Date Statement of Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying is permitted in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Karen Richards Date iii iv Abstract Narrow-range endemic species are thought to have naturally small distributions, limited by size, mobility, dispersal capabilities, specific habitat requirements and biogeographical boundaries. Many narrow range taxa are poorly reserved and most threatened freshwater invertebrate taxa in Tasmania, including the majority of Beddomeia species, fall into this category. Management of such taxa is reliant on informed ecological data which is not currently available for many freshwater invertebrates. To address the need for more detailed information on one such group of aquatic invertebrates, this study obtained spatial and ecological data for a number of Beddomeia species and identified habitat variables that together explained the snail distributions. A combination of geology, catchment size, forest type, flow and disturbance were identified as significant explanatory variables of Beddomeia presence within a river catchment.

Assessor's Summary of Significance: Elizabeth Springs is one of a suite of nationally important artesian springs in the Great Artesian Basin, which is the world’s largest artesian basin. The artesian springs have been the primary natural source of permanent water in most of the Australian arid zone over the last 1.8 Million years (the Pleistocene and Holocene periods). These artesian springs, also known as mound springs, provide vital habitat for more widespread terrestrial vertebrates and invertebrates with aquatic larval young, and are a unique feature of the arid Australian landscape. As these artesian springs are some distance from each other in the Australian inland, and individually each one covers a relatively tiny area, their isolation has allowed the freshwater animal lineages to evolve into distinct species, which include fish, aquatic invertebrates (crustacean and freshwater snail species) and wetland plants. This results in a high level of endemism, or species that are found nowhere else in the world.
