First record of the invasive Asian Clam, Corbicula fluminea (O.F. Müller, 1774) (Bivalvia, Cyrenidae), in Baja California Sur, Mexico
2025
Overview
The Asian Clam, Corbicula fluminea (O.F. Müller, 1774), is a high-risk invasive species in Mexico. The first record for the country dates back to 1969, and by 2024 its presence had been documented in 26 of the 32 Mexican states. In June 2025, the presence of C. fluminea was detected in the San Ignacio oasis, which has potential repercussions for endemic species there and highlights the urgent need to implement a control and eradication program for C. fluminea in the San Ignacio oasis. Monitoring of nearby oases is also necessary.
