Phylogeny of European Anodontini (Bivalvia: Unionidae) with a redescription of Anodonta exulcerata. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 189(3), 745–761. https://doi.org/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlz136

Freshwater bivalves are highly threatened and globally declining due to multiple anthropogenic impacts, making them important conservation targets. Because conservation policies and actions generally occur at the species level, accurate species ident...

Mesozoic mitogenome rearrangements and freshwater mussel (Bivalvia: Unionoidea) macroevolution (2019)
Journal Article
Froufe, E., Bolotov, I., Aldridge, D. C., Bogan, A. E., Breton, S., Gan, H. M., …Lopes-Lima, M. (2020). Mesozoic mitogenome rearrangements and freshwater mussel (Bivalvia: Unionoidea) macroevolution. Heredity, 124, 182–196. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41437-019-0242-y
