Ecology

Anodonta (Sinanodonta) woodiana, a species of East Asian unionid mussel, established worldwide despite having an obligatory parasitic stage (glochidium), which must encyst on host fish. The species is a broad host generalist, which can complete its development on all fish species tested, both coinvasive and native.[10]
