Abstract: The poor understanding of changes in mollusc ecology along rivers, especially in West Africa, hampers the implementation of management measures. We used a self–organizing map, indicator species analysis, linear discriminant analysis and a random forest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/mf16349
Abstract: Although different studies in Antarctica have dealt with benthic communities, few studies have focused on molluscan assemblages and their ecology. During the austral summer of 2011, 17 stations between depths of 68.5 and 754m were… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d10030096
Abstract: Dendropoma lebeche is a prosobranch gastropod belonging to the family Vermetidae, which calcifies its shell on hard substrates in dense aggregates, forming biogenic constructions along the western Mediterranean intertidal habitat. It is an important ecosystem… read more here.
