POPULATION GENETICS OF FRESHWATER SPONGES (PORIFERA: SPONGILLIDAE) AND SISYRIDAE (INSECTA: NEUROPTERA) OF THE UPPER-SUSQUEHANNA RIVER BASIN
Otsego Lake and the upper-Susquehanna River basin, located in central New York, have been found to support populations of freshwater sponges (Porifera: Spongillidae) and members of the neuropteran family Sisyridae. Little is known about which species are present in this area, or even the population structures of these organisms, and there are few distribution records available for the region. This study provided some insight into the species of sponges and sisyrids present in the upper-Susquehanna River basin and around Otsego Lake, and created distribution records for each. Molecular markers cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and wingless (wnt) were then used to identify any gene flow that may exist between populations of the sisyrid Climacia areolaris (Hagen), and if there are any dispersal biases in this species.
