“…2a, 2b)." The comparison per formed by Bogatov (2012) and his conclusion about the similarity of dentition in the holotypes of D. ussuriensis and D. transbaicalica are not correct. This work shows that the tooth in the right valve of these holotypes is very different (Fig.…”

“…Reidentification of D. transbaicalica by the modi fied comparative method and its reduction to the syn onym of D. ussuriensis based on similarities in the con tour of the most protuberant valve section (Bogatov, 2012) showed that it is not species specific and that this method is not appropriate for identification of the pearl mussels species. The correctness of this method is proved by Bogatov (2010).…”

“…6). Species identification of 90% of pearl mussels sam pled from Transbaikalia, which was based on the key to the identification (Bogatov et al, 2003;Starobogatov et al, 2004), turned out to be quite difficult or impos sible, because the ratios of basic measurements in them are provided for shells 6-11 cm length (Bogatov, 2012). It means that the holotypes of D. ussuriensis and D. tiunovae with the shell lengths of 12.6 and 15.3 cm, respectively, were not taken into account when these keys were compiled.…”

“…It has been assumed that this region, which is an extreme western habitat border of the Far Eastern pearl mussels of the genus Dahurinaia, is inhabited by four species (Staro bogatov et al, 2004;Bogatov, 2012). Based on the data obtained by various researchers, this list was supple mented with Kurilinaia laevis Haas, 1910, K. zatrawkini Zatravkin et Bogatov, 1989, and D. transbaicalica Klishko, 2008(Klishko, 2008).…”

“…The first two species were reduced to synonyms of M. laevis Kondo, Kobajashi, 2005. The latter species was identified again using the modified comparative method and reduced to the synonym of D. ussuriensis Bogatov, Prozorova et Starobogatov, 2003(Bogatov, 2012.…”

Molecular and genetic studies have revealed that all five species of pearl mussels of the genus Dahurinaia (Bivalvia, Margaritiferidae) inhabiting the upper basin of the Amur River on the territory of Transbaikalia belong to Margaritifera dahurica Middendorff, 1850. Based on the statistical analysis, it has been shown that morphometric shell ratios form continuous variation series without differentiation on dis crete groups. It has been found that changes in these ratios are caused by the shell growth of pearl mussels and their morphological variations reflects the high level of polymorphism. The so called "comparator" species of the genus Dahurinaia are differently sized groups of one polymorphic biological species M. dahurica.

Taxonomy and Distribution of Freshwater Pearl Mussels (Unionoida: Margaritiferidae) of the Russian Far East

et al. 2015

The freshwater pearl mussel family Margaritiferidae includes 13 extant species, which are all listed by IUCN as endangered or vulnerable taxa. In this study, an extensive spatial sampling of Margaritifera spp. across the Russian Far East (Amur Basin, Kamchatka Peninsula, Kurile Archipelago and Sakhalin Island) was conducted for a revision of their taxonomy and distribution ranges. Based on their DNA sequences, shell and soft tissue morphology, three valid species were identified: Margaritifera dahurica (Middendorff, 1850), M. laevis (Haas, 1910) and M. middendorffi (Rosén, 1926). M. dahurica ranges across the Amur basin and some of the nearest river systems. M. laevis is distributed in Japan, Sakhalin Island and the Kurile Archipelago. M. middendorffi was previously considered an endemic species of the Kamchatka. However, it is widespread in the rivers of Kamchatka, Sakhalin Island, the Kurile Islands (across the Bussol Strait, which is the most significant biogeographical boundary within the archipelago), and, likely, in Japan. The Japanese species M. togakushiensis Kondo & Kobayashi, 2005 seems to be conspecific with M. middendorffi because of similar morphological patterns, small shell size (<100 mm long) and overlapped ranges, but it is in need of a separate revision. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that two NW Pacific margaritiferid species, M. laevis and M. middendorffi, formed a monophyletic 18S rDNA clade together with the North American species M. marrianae and M. falcata. The patterns that were found in these Margaritifera spp. are similar to those of freshwater fishes, indicating multiple colonizations of Eastern Asia by different mitochondrial lineages, including an ancient Beringian exchange between freshwater faunas across the Pacific.
