Factors associated with the population structure of an invasive mollusk in a neotropical floodplain

Abstract: Limnoperna fortunei is an invasive mussel species that is continuously expanding through South American. It has five larval stages, which usually differ in tolerance to environmental factors. How different abiotic filters affect L. fortunei larval stages has not been studied in depth. We employed a detailed database describing five floodplain environments to investigate the distribution of L. fortunei larval stages within and among these environments and determine which local abiotic filters affect the density… Show more

“…Our findings for high‐latitude Beijing indicate that water temperature positively affects D‐shaped veliger and pediveliger density (Appendix S1: Tables S3 and S4). This effect may reflect the relationship between reproductive synchrony of L. fortunei and environmental seasonality (Ernandes‐Silva et al, 2021; Junk et al, 1989). For example, in southern China, Japan, and Argentina, L. fortunei reproduction reaches a peak in early summer when the water temperature rises (i.e., from 19 to 22°C, from 15 to 20°C, and from 16.7 to 18°C, respectively) (Boltovskoy, 2015; Lee, 2014; Nakano et al, 2017).…”

“…We used a YSI EXO water‐quality monitoring instrument (Xylem, USA) to measure water‐quality parameters (water temperature [WT], conductivity [Cond], pH, DO, and turbidity [Turb]) that may affect L. fortunei 's survival and development (Ernandes‐Silva et al, 2021; Oliveira et al, 2011). A portable chlorophyll fluorometer (Seabird, USA) was used to measure chlorophyll a (Chl a ).…”
