Description
A study commissioned by the Utah Division of Water Quality and the Colorado Water Quality Control Division. Study was carried out by Utah State University. The overarching goal of the study was to conduct a comprehensive search and synthesis of existing records on the historical and current presence of ammonia-sensitive freshwater mussels (Superfamily Unionoidea) and non-pulmonate snails (Valvatidae, Hydrobiidae) in Utah and Colorado. In addition to these targeted species, other species belonging to Class Bivalvia and freshwater Gastropoda were also included. Though they were not actively sought during record searches, occurrence of non-native species such as the New Zealand mud snail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum), Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea), quagga mussel (Dreissena burgensis) and the Chinese mystery snail (Cipangopaluding chinensis) were also noted. Records in this dataset are the result of such efforts as found in previously-compiled databases found online (such as BISON), museums, peer and non-peer reviewed literature and reports, and direct personal contacts.

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
Assembly of information from literature and databases required use of an array of resources. We first searched large previously-compiled databases available online such as USGS BISON and GBIF (See Table 1 for a complete list). These databases were used to identify primary sources (defined as where the data were originally published), including museums, peer and non-peer reviewed literature and reports, and direct contacts. Once primary sources were identified, museums and online databases were searched for online records of target species. The purpose of searching these online resources first was to identify the bulk of available records in Utah and Colorado that would likely also be found during literature searches, thus minimizing time spent entering data. By initially collecting records from museums, online databases, and direct contacts, we could obtain the most current records available from institutions and organizations responsible for collection and reporting of specimens.
| Etendue de l'étude | Freshwater habitats in the States of Utah and Colorado in the United States of America (USA). |
|---|---|
| Contrôle qualité | Data were recorded verbatim from the primary source. We occasionally found that initial species identifications had been challenged or later changed, and we made corresponding changes to our reported data. Other than correcting for published synonymies, we could not independently determine the accuracy of species identifications. While the data presented in this report is as accurate as the scope and intention of this project allows, there is a degree of taxonomic uncertainty, as is present with any taxonomy. As such, records should be thoroughly vetted and specimen of interest may require re-examination by species experts. |
