Recent investigations of East Asian freshwater mussel genera Nodularia, Middendorffinaia and Inversiunio confirmed validity the taxa, while their composition taxonomic uncertainty concerning classification these within a specific subfamily are still in question. The aim present study is to clarify taxonomy systematics Nodularia from Russian Far Japan, using multiple dataset approach that combines morphology glochidia, detailed conchological analyses with morphometry adult glochidial shells,...
The evolutionary history and diversity of unionoid mussels in East Asia need to be clarified would shed light on the formation process unique fauna Japan. Unionoid (Mollusca: Bivalvia) are models for understanding by which organisms have diversified before after Japanese archipelago. poor dispersal ability, so it is thought that they been strongly influenced archipelago’s formation. Therefore, speciation diversification processes were investigated analyzing nuclear mitochondrial DNA a wide...
