Includes bibliographical references (pages 8-13). "Dark Falsemussel, Mytilopsis leucophaeata, is an invasive macrofouling pest that has had significant impacts in its invaded range. This species originates from the southern coast of the USA and the Gulf of Mexico but has invaded various non-native regions of the United States, Brazil and Europe. Dark Falsemussel is found in brackish warm–temperate waters within its native range; however, the species can survive within very broad environmental limits. Once introduced in non-native regions through industrial shipping, the high temperature and salinity tolerance of the species favors its establishment. Extensive knowledge of the species biology is crucial to better understand the risk of invasion in Canada"--Abstract, page iv. Includes abstracts in English and French. Dreissenidae.
