“…Entre las especies de moluscos invasores de mayor importancia a nivel mundial se encuentran la "almeja cebra" Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771), la "almeja quagga" Dreissena rostriformis bugensis (Andrusov, 1897) y la "almeja asiática" Corbicula fluminea (O. F. Müller, 1774) ( Barba-Macías & Trinidad-Ocaña, 2017). Esta última especie ocasiona daños obstruyendo los canales de riego y tuberías de agua potable (Paunovié et al, 2007), actuando a modo de "biofouler" (Williams & McMahon, 1986).…”

“…El género Corbicula (Megerle von Mühlfeld, 1811) ha tenido una rápida y continua expansión (Darrigrán & Colauti, 1994;McMahon, 1983;Hakenkamp & Palmer, 1999), y en particular, la especie C. fluminea ha detentado una gran La introducción de especies exóticas en ambientes acuáticos es una preocupación mundial (Barba-Macías & Trinidad-Ocaña, 2017). Se considera como especie invasora, aquellas que, además de ser exóticas, se caracterizan por una rápida maduración sexual, gran capacidad reproductora y un formidable potencial adaptativo a los ambientes que colonizan, sean naturales, artificiales, dulceacuícolas o salobres (Darrigran, 1997).…”

“…Araujo et al (1993) tipifican el sustrato de C. fluminea de la Península Ibérica, señalando que vive en sustratos de arena, lodo y grava, siendo típicamente de aguas lóticas, esto último, es revalidado por Takeda et al (2002), adicionando, que los canales secundarios de los ríos presentan condiciones apropiadas para el establecimiento de especies exóticas. No obstante, C. fluminea, puede tolerar niveles de salinidad 13 ppm, durante períodos cortos de tiempo (Evans et al, 1979;Morton & Tong, 1985), extendiéndose también a estuarios (Kramer-Wilt, 2008;Barba-Macías & Trinidad-Ocaña, 2017). C. fluminea puede mantenerse estable en un intervalo de temperatura de 2−36°C (Balcom, 1994), empero, requiere de temperaturas superiores a 16°C para poder reproducirse (Foe & Knight, 1986).…”

In the present study, the first record of the presence of Corbicula fluminea (Müller, 1774) is reported in the aquaculture systems of the Mala Basin, Lima, Peru, and some diagnostic characters are detailed for easy identification. Fifty specimens were collected from a ditch of Mala River, in which the temperature and the pH were measured. Some conchiliometric variables and characteristics of the visceral mass were analyzed. The descriptive statistics of the variables were obtained and a graph of frequencies of the valve length (LV) was made. The normality of the variables was confirmed by a Q-Q test, then this was reaffirmed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Subsequently, Pearson correlations were performed to check the morphological stability. An average of 1.57 cm was found for LV, with a maximum value of 2.50 cm. The highest proportion of individuals was found in the interval of 1.50 cm to 2 cm, calculating the age of the population of the Mala River in at least one year. The C. fluminea revealed a great positive correlation among all its variables. Externally, it presents conspicuous concentric ribs; internally, the inhaling and exhaling siphon are bordered by a dark coloration of pigments. The C. fluminea differs from Neocorbicula limosa (Maton, 1811) in its bathymetric distribution. The temperature found provides the appropriate conditions for the C. fluminea reproduction. It is presumed that the individuals found represent a satellite population, dispersed due to the El Niño phenomenon.

Broadscale distribution, abundance, and habitat associations of the invasive Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea) in the lower Columbia River, USA

et al. 2022

The Asian clam, Corbicula fluminea, is an invasive freshwater bivalve that has established populations across the globe and is known to have deleterious effects on natural and human systems. Yet, despite being present in the Columbia River (CR) for nearly a century, little is known about this invader's basic biology and ecology in this large river system. Thus, we undertook a field study to assess its (i) broadscale distribution and abundance, and (ii) associations with habitat characteristics in the lower CR. During 2019-2020, C. fluminea were collected from 27 shore-based stations spanning 481 river kilometers of the lower CR, along with several habitat characteristics (bank slope, temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity, conductivity, chlorophyll-a concentration, and sediment composition and % organic matter [OM]). C. fluminea abundance ranged from 0 to 430 ind. m −2 . Most sites with abundances >100 ind. m −2 were located downstream of Bonneville Dam, whereas most sites with abundances <100 ind. m −2 were located upstream. Generalized linear models predicting the abundance of C. fluminea indicated significantly positive correlations with water temperature and % sand, and negative correlations with bank slope and sedimentary % OM. We also reviewed the global literature on abundance and habitat associations of C. fluminea and compared this with our own results. Our investigation represents the greatest spatial extent at which C. fluminea has been studied in the CR and our results provide a better understanding of the basic biology and ecology of this global invader, as well as provide natural resource managers with information on habitat conditions favorable for this invasive bivalve within temperate river ecosystems.
