Recovery potential assessment for kidneyshell (Ptychobranchus fasciolaris).: Fs70-6/2025-033E-PDF

"Kidneyshell (Ptychobranchus fasciolaris) is a medium-sized, relatively long-lived freshwater mussel currently found in two watersheds in southwestern Ontario. It was assessed as Endangered by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) in May 2003, and the status was re-assessed and confirmed in May 2013. This was due to a considerable loss in the species historical range from impacts of Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) and agricultural land use practices. Kidneyshell was listed on schedule 1 of the Species at Risk Act (SARA) in 2005"--Context, page [1].
