Abstract:Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) are a significant threat to global freshwater biodiversity. This study focuses on the banded mystery snail, Callinina georgiana, an invasive species in the Adirondack region of northern New York, an important section of the New York Great Lakes Basin. This project aims to explore the genetic connectivity of C. georgiana within its invasive range using a combination of mitochondrial and nuclear markers. Sampling was conducted in the Raquette River and adjacent waterways, with a to… Show more
