Super interesting pattern of epibiont eggs on this pistolgrip mussel shell. Eggs laid in troughs of grooves on shell surface. Hydrodynamic protection?? If anyone can ID eggs plz let me know!

In addition we used 3RAD sequencing to test for paternity and found as many as 27 fathers for just 38 individuals, illustrating a high degree of multiple paternity in freshwater mussels

🐚 New research! 🐚
Freshwater mussels reared from same maternal brood express highly divergent morphologies associated w/ lake vs. stream habitats!

Hi all! Please check out our new research in Molecular Ecology where we found the divergence history of a widespread aquatic mollusk was characterized by fission-fusion cycles consistent with Pleistocene river rearrangements. #molluscmonday #freshwatermussels onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
