Chapter 19 – Class Bivalvia1
Histological Atlas of Freshwater Mussels (Bivalvia, Unionidae): Villosa nebulosa (Ambleminae: Lampsilini), Fusconaia cerina (Ambleminae: Pleurobemini) and Strophitus connasaugaensis (Unioninae: Anodontini)
TLDR
The present study represents the first histological atlas for freshwater mussels, comprises a baseline for monitoring mussel health in aquatic ecosystems, and could assist future workers studying freshwater mussel physiology, life history, toxicology, pathology, systematics and ecology.
Light and Transmission Electron Microscopy of Two Spermatogenic Pathways and Unimorphic Spermatozoa in Venustaconcha ellipsiformis (Conrad, 1836) (Bivalvia: Unionoida)
TLDR
It is proposed that the necessity of producing spermatozoa with F and M mt genome-bearing mitochondria, to maintain dioecy and 50 : 50 sex ratios in freshwater bivalve populations, accounts for the > 200 million year maintenance of two spermatogenic pathways in the Unionoida.

Bivalve Mollusc Hemocyte Behaviors: Characterization of Hemocyte Aggregation and Adhesion and Their Inhibition in the California Mussel (Mytilus californianus).
TLDR
It appears that Mytilus hemocyte aggregation, in vitro, is a two-step process that requires metabolic energy and divalent cations (calcium and magnesium), and is temperature-sensitive.
Structure and Functions of Oyster Hemocytes
There are a number of characteristics which should be considered in a definitive classification of hemocytes [40], but the initial criterion is most often morphology. Although no general agreement on…
A Classification of Molluscan Hemocytes Based on Functional Evidences
TLDR
Molluscan hemocytes serve a variety of functions and are involved in wound repair, internal defense, nutrient digestion and transport, and cellular immunity.
Ctenidial autotomy in Corbicula fluminea in response to massive granulomas.
Large granulomas (greater than 2 millimeters in diameter), stimulated by the presence of and formed around necrotic larval tissue in the inner demibranchs of Corbicula fluminea, are eliminated by…
