The Potomida genus (Bivalvia, Unionida) has a Circum-Mediterranean distribution and like other freshwater mussel species, its populations have suffered dramatic declines. Although this genus is currently considered monotypic, it has a long history of taxonomic revisions and presently many aspects of its systematics and evolutionary history are uncl...

New species of Bithyniidae (Pseudobithynia adiyamanensis sp. nov.), Hydrobiidae (Pseudorientalia ceriti sp. nov.), and Bythinellidae (Bythinella yerlii sp. nov.) are described from three different locations in Turkey. Samples were collected in 2013 and 2016 and the shell and male genital tract morphology of the new species were studied. All of thes...

In a survey of the mollusc fauna of the Ceyhan River Basin, including rivers, natural lakes, dam lakes and springs between June 2008 and September 2014, a total of 20 species of Gastropoda and 8 species of Bivalvia were identified. Two of these species are new to science, and for one of them a new genus is erected: the hydrobiid Hemite ceyhanensis...
Freshwater mussels perform important ecological functions in ecosystems, such as water filtration and energy cycling. Unlike marine bivalves, freshwater mussels have unique characteristics including internal fertilization and parental care. Some freshwater mussels are facing a high risk of extinction due to several factors such as climate change an...
The global decline of freshwater mussels and their crucial ecological services highlight the need to understand their phylogeny, phylogeography and patterns of genetic diversity to guide conservation efforts. Such knowledge is urgently needed for Unio crassus, a highly imperilled species originally widespread throughout Europe and southwest Asia. R...

Türkiye, which is one of the important speciation regions of the Palearctic Region, is one of the distribution centers of the genus Dreissena. Since the 1800s, many taxa belonging to the genus have been mentioned, especially by European researchers. However, in recent years, the existence of three taxa has been determined mainly in the lentic syste...
The systematics of Anatolian species of the aquatic snail family Hydrobiidae Stimpson, 1865 has received little attention. Several of these species were previously classified within the circum-Mediterranean genera Pseudamnicola Paulucci, 1878 and Graecoanatolica Radoman, 1973 according to their shell and penis features. Two examples are P. geldiaya...
Located at the junction between Europe, Africa, and Asia, with distinct evolutionary origins and varied ecological and geographical settings, together with a marked history of changes in orogeny and configuration of the main river basins, turned the Eastern Mediterranean into a region of high diversity and endemism of freshwater taxa.

Asia contains a high species diversity of the freshwater gastropod genus Theodoxus. Recent molecular and morphological reviews of this diversity have uncovered a number of yet undescribed species while suggesting the urgent revision of several others. Moreover, some of these studies have indicated a number of species previously not recorded for thi...
