Eleven places around the Guayaquil city (Estero Salado and Guayas River), were studied and eleven species of mollusks were founded of which seven (7) belong to Bivalvia class and four (4) to the Gastropoda class. The families of the Bivalvia are: Ostreidae, Mytilidae, Dreissenidae, Veneridae, Tellinidae y Corbiculidae and the Gastropoda class are: Neritidae, Potamididae, Littorinidae y Melampidae. The Bivalvia families most abundant are: Ostreidae y Dreissenidae and the Gastropoda is Potamididae. The higher biodiversity is around of the Portete bridge and the lowest biodiversity was observed at the Guayas River. |
