Distribution and dispersal of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) in the Great Lakes region Distribution and dispersal of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) in the Great Lakes region
Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas), a small mussel common throughout most of Europe, was discovered in June of 1988 in the southern part of Lake St. Clair. Length–frequency analyses of populations from the Great Lakes and review of historical benthic studies suggest that the mussel was introduced into Lake St. Clair in late 1986, probably as a result of the discharge of ballast water from an...

The zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771), in North America: impact on raw water users The zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771), in North America: impact on raw water users
The zebra mussel, Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas), is a small mollusc native to the Black, Caspian, and Azov Seas that was discovered in Lake Erie of the Laurentian Great Lakes of North America in 1988. Its presence there raises immediate concerns for users of raw water because it can become abundant enough to obstruct the flow of water through pipes, hoses, screens, and condensers...
