Another mystery snail in the Adirondacks: DNA barcoding reveals the first record ofSinotaiacf.quadrata(Caenogastropoda: Viviparidae) from North America
Abstract:Alien molluscs pose a serious threat to global freshwater diversity and have been implicated in many ecosystem-altering invasion events over the past few decades. Biomonitoring surveys are therefore a key tool for ensuring biosecurity in diversity hotspots and vulnerable habitats. In this study, we use DNA barcoding to provide the first record of the viviparid, Sinotaia cf. quadrata from North America. Reciprocal monophyly and low genetic divergence (uncorrected p-distance: 0.004) with a Bellamya quadrata indi… Show more
