Abstract
This study presents the data on the first record of Sinanodonta woodiana and S. lauta in artificially heated site of Reftinsky reservoir by warm water discharge of the Reftinsky thermal power plant (Sverdlovsk Region, the Reft River, Ob-Irtysh River Basin). This find is the northernmost habitat of these mussels of all known. The population of this species shares the invasive haplotypes: E3 ( S. woodiana ) and C3 ( S. lauta ). The population of the mussels includes individuals of various size and different age groups, and this fact could be an indirect evidence of successful naturalization of the species. The group of older specimens (over 10 years old) is more numerous in the population of S. woodiana (56%). The group of specimens of middle age (3-6 years) is more numerous in the population of S. lauta, their share is 48%. Specimens of Sinanodonta younger than 1-year-old (shell length less than 25 mm) are absent, and specimens of 2-3 years old are not numerous. Based on molecular data and archival records on fishery use, we assume that the invasion of S. woodiana and S. lauta in the Reftinsky reservoir is associated with introduction of food fish delivered from the Volga fish-farms at the end of the 20th - the beginning of the 21st century.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of Biological Invasions publishes original scientific papers dealing with biological invasions of alien species in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and covers the following subjects:description of invasion process (theory, modeling, results of observations and experiments): invasion corridors, invasion vectors, invader species adaptations, vulnerability of aboriginal ecosystems;monitoring of invasion process (reports about findings of organisms out of the limits of natural range, propagule pressure assessment, settling dynamics, rates of naturalization);invasion risk assessment; genetic, evolutional, and ecological consequences of biological invasions of alien species; methods, means of hoarding, processing and presentation of applied research data (new developments, modeling, research results, databases) with factual and geoinformation system applications;use of the results of biological invasion research (methods and new basic results) under the study of marine, fresh-water and terrestrial species, populations, communities and ecosystems; control, rational use and eradication of the harmful alien species..
