Kondakov, Alexander V., Palatov, Dmitry M., Rajabov, Zakir P., Gofarov, Mikhail Yu., Konopleva, Ekaterina S., Tomilova, Alena A., Vikhrev, Ilya V. & Bolotov, Ivan N., 2018, DNA analysis of a non-native lineage of Sinanodonta woodiana species complex (Bivalvia: Unionidae) from Middle Asia supports the Chinese origin of the European invaders, Zootaxa 4462 (4), pp. 511-522 : 517-518

Sinanodonta schrenkii ( Lea, 1870)

Anodon schrenkii Lea (1870) : 75.

Sinanodonta schrencki Moskvicheva (1973) : 826.

Sinanodonta amurensis Moskvicheva (1973) : 826; Sayenko et al. (2017): 266.

Sinanodonta likharevi Moskvicheva (1973) : 827.

Type locality: Amur River.

Comments: This cryptic species was resurrected by Sayenko et al. (2017) as S. amurensis Moskvicheva, 1973 ( Table 1). However, S. schrenkii seems to be the oldest available name for this species. The latter taxon was introduced by Lea (1870: 75) as follows: “The figure given by Dr. Schrenck in Reisen und Forschungen im Amur- Lande is not my magnifica . I therefore propose to call it Schrenkii ”.
