“…Up to now, 17 genera have been identified belonging to the Hydrobiidae family sensu stricto in Morocco (Mabrouki et al, 2021a(Mabrouki et al, , 2022. However, despite a growing number of data over the last years, resulting in the discovery of many new taxa (Glöer et al, 2020a, b;Ghamizi, 2021;Mabrouki et al, 2021b;Taybi et al, 2021), our knowledge of freshwater snails of Morocco remains scanty and we could argue that the picture of hydrobiid species list in North Africa is still incomplete.…”

“…Total genomic DNA was extracted from entire snails using a CTAB protocol described in Wilke et al (2006) and the DNeasy Blood & Tissue kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). The mitochondrial gene fragments cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and the large ribosomal subunit (16S), as well as the nuclear large ribosomal subunit (28S), were amplified using the primer pairs of Boulaassafer et al (2020). The universal metazoan primers of Holland et al (1991) served to amplify a fragment of the nuclear small ribosomal subunit (18S).…”

The fifth mass extinction event (MEE) at the Cretaceous–Palaeogene (K–Pg) boundary 66 million years ago (Ma) led to massive species loss but also triggered the diversification of higher taxa. Five models have been proposed depending on whether this diversification occurred before, during or after the K–Pg boundary and the rate of species accumulation. While the effects of the K–Pg MEE on vertebrate evolution are relatively well understood, the impact on invertebrates, particularly in freshwater ecosystems, remains controversial. One example is the hyperdiverse Hydrobiidae—the most species‐rich family of freshwater gastropods. Whereas some studies place its origin in the Jurassic or even Carboniferous, most fossil records postdate the K–Pg event. We therefore used robustly time‐calibrated multi‐locus phylogenies of >400 species representing >100 hydrobiid genera to unravel its evolutionary history and patterns of diversification. We found that the family started diversifying shortly after the K–Pg boundary (∼60 Ma; 95% highest posterior density 52–69 Ma). Lineage richness gradually increased to the present and phylogenetic diversity until ∼25 Ma. These findings suggest that diversification was not initially driven by ecological opportunity. Combining the two criteria of timing and rate of diversification, a soft‐explosive diversification model of aquatic vertebrates best fits the patterns observed. We also show that most higher hydrobiid taxa (i.e. subfamilies) diversified from the Middle Oligocene to Middle Miocene (i.e. 12–28 Ma). Two of the 15 major clades delimited are described here as new subfamilies (i.e. Bullaregiinae n. subfam. and Pontobelgrandiellinae n. subfam.), whose members are restricted to subterranean waters. Our results are an important contribution to understanding how the fifth MEE has shaped evolution and patterns of biodiversity in continental aquatic systems. Given the high extinction risks faced by many hydrobiids today, they also emphasise the need to study the biodiversity of vulnerable ecosystems.

“…However, compared with recent advances in research into the role of waterbirds in the dispersal of plants (e.g., Lovas-Kiss et al 2019;Martín-Vélez et al 2021a;Sebastián-González et al 2020), their role as dispersal vectors of invertebrates remains poorly investigated. For example, their importance as vectors for molluscs remains unclear, despite anecdotal observations and an increasing number of studies of mollusc genetics that support a key role for birds (Green and Figuerola 2005;Martin et al 2020;Boulaassafer et al 2020).…”

Dispersal of aquatic invertebrates by lesser black-backed gulls and white storks within and between inland habitats

et al. 2021

Waterbirds can transport aquatic invertebrates internally, contributing to metapopulation dynamics between aquatic habitats in a terrestrial matrix. However, research into this dispersal process to date has focused on individual field sites or laboratory studies. We investigated the invertebrates dispersed by endozoochory by the lesser black-backed gull Larus fuscus wintering in Andalusia, south-west Spain in 2016–2017, comparing seven sites interconnected by their movements, with different degrees of anthropogenization [three landfills, two saltpan complexes, a natural lake, and a large (370 km2) ricefield area]. In the ricefields, we also compared invertebrates dispersed by gulls with those dispersed by the larger white stork Ciconia ciconia. A total of 642 intact invertebrates and their propagules (mainly plumatellid bryozoans, cladocerans, and other branchiopods) were recorded in excreta (faeces and pellets) from gulls and storks. A greater diversity and abundance of invertebrates were recorded in ricefields, notably 43 individuals of the alien snail Physella acuta. One snail was still alive in a gull pellet 3 weeks after being stored in a fridge. This represents the first record of snail dispersal within waterbird pellets. Viability was also confirmed for the cladoceran Macrothrix rosea recorded in ricefields, and the alien brine shrimp Artemia franciscana recorded mainly in saltpans. In ricefields, gulls and pellets had significantly fewer propagules and fewer taxa per gram of excreta than storks and faeces, respectively. Through their high mobility, gulls and storks can disperse invertebrates between different natural and artificial habitats, and even to landfills. They can promote metapopulation dynamics for native bryozoans and branchiopods, but also the spread of invasive snails and brine shrimp.
