Freshwater Mollusks Survive Fish Gut Passage
Freshwater mollusks figure prominently in the diets of humpback whitefish (Coregonus pidschian) and broad whitefish (C. nasus), two benthic-feeding coregonid species.

description | Freshwater mollusks figure prominently in the diets of humpback whitefish (Coregonus pidschian) and broad whitefish (C. nasus), two benthic-feeding coregonid species. A recent examination of pea clams (Sphaeriidae), valve snails (Valvatidae), and pond snails (Lymnaeidae) from the lower digestive tracts of these fish found that many of the mollusks were alive. Survival completely through gut passage would indicate a dispersal mechanism for freshwater mollusks that has not been previously recognized. A field investigation was conducted with wild-caught humpback and broad whitefish to test the hypothesis that clams and snails are capable of surviving complete gut passage. Wild fish were captured alive and held in collection totes to obtain feces samples. Pea clams and valve snails were abundant in fish feces, and pond snails were present but not abundant. An average of 483 pea clams and 833 valve snails per fish were observed to have survived complete gut passage, while only a single surviving pond snail was found. These findings suggest that fish may play an important role in the dispersal of freshwater mollusks within freshwater systems. /// Les mollusques d'eau douce constituent une partie imposante du régime alimentaire du coregone à bosse (Coregonus pidschian) et du coregone tschir (C. nasus), deux corégonidés à alimentation benthique. L'analyse récente de pisidies (Sphaeriidae), de valvatidés (Valvatidae) et de lymnéidés (Lymnaeidae) provenant du tractus digestif inférieur de ces poissons a permis de constater que grand nombre de ces mollusques étaient toujours en vie. Le fait d'avoir entièrement survécu dans le passage digestif porterait à croire qu'il s'agirait là d'un mécanisme de dispersion des mollusques d'eau douce qui n' ajamáis encore été reconnu. Une étude sur le terrain a été réalisée au moyen de corégones à bosse et de corégones tschir afin de mettre à l'épreuve l'hypothèse selon laquelle les pisidies, les valvatidés et les lymnéidés sont capables de survivre à travers tout le passage digestif. Des poissons sauvages ont été capturés en vie et conservés dans des sacs de prélèvement dans le but de recueillir des échantillons de fèces. Les pisidies et les valvatidés abondaient dans les fèces des poissons, tandis que les lymnéidés ne s'y retrouvaient pas en abondance.
