Watters, G. T. (1994). An annotated bibliography of the reproduction and propogation of the Unionidea (primarily of North America). Ohio Biological Survey, Miscellaneous Contribution 1.
Citations for the published literature on unionoidean reproduction and propogation are presented in chronological order, beginning with 1695 and continuing through December 1993. Each citation is briefly annotated, and cross-indexed according to its relevance to freshwater mussel culture, transplantation, ecology, development, parasites, and host relationships. Recorded hosts for unionoideans are cross indexed by mussel species and fish species. Appendix A gives literature records of suspected or proven hosts for unionoideans. Appendix B lists unionoidean parasites for each host, as well as unspecified glochidia found on hosts. The chronological bibliography of the main text is ordered alphabetically by author in Appendix C, and categorized by topic. Topics emphasized include culturing and transplanting unionoideans, identifying unionoidean hosts and parasites, unionoidean development, and unionoidean ecology.
