Abstract | Conchological and allozymic evidence is consistent with the taxonomic distinction of Anodonta lacustris Lea 1857 (="A. marginata" sensu F. C. Baker 1928, non Say 1817) from A. grandis Say 1829. In addition, allozymic evidence supports the distinction of A. lacustris from A. cataracta Say 1817 and A. fragilis Lamarck 1819. Furthermore, justification is provided for the use of the name A. lacustris Lea 1857 in lieu of A. marginata Say 1817. |
