Modeling Effects of Instream Variables, Land Use, and Life History Attributes on Community Structure of Freshwater Mussels in Louisiana Streams
Unionoids (freshwater mussels) are important in aquatic ecosystems, yet despite their continued decline in diversity, little is known about their distribution and ecology. To study Louisiana mussel species richness, abundance, and distribution I sampled 65 sites within six major watersheds in the Pi...
