Distribution and Diversity of Molluscs in the Mid-lower Yangtze Lakes
长江中下游湖泊软体动物的多样性及分布现状(In English)
By Shu Fengyue
In China, the most diverse molluscan fauna occurs in the Yangtze basin. The molluscan fauna in this region are highly imperiled due to increasing human activities. Aiming at effective conservation of the deteriorating molluscan fauna, intensive field investigations of freshwater molluscs on the mid-lower Yangtze Lakes were conducted between June, 2003 and May, 2005. Altogether 69 species were identified during the collection, including 29 gastropod species belonging to 9 families.
