A ‘big data’ approach to global freshwater mussel diversity (Bivalvia: Unionoida), with an updated checklist of genera and species (2021, methodology): “Since 2007, we have reported tallies of unionoid richness as high as 918 species (Graf, 2013; Graf & Cummings, 2019).”
A New Critical Estimate of Named Species-Level Diversity of the Recent Mollusca* (2014, background): “For freshwater diversity I have accepted the two most recent rigorous tallies: the estimate of 3,795–3,972 freshwater gastropods from Strong et al. (2008) and the enumeration of 1209 freshwater bivalves by Graf (2013).”
