The black-striped mussel, Mytilopsis sallei is an invasive biofouling bivalve native to the tropical and subtropical waters of the western Atlantic, which extends from Colombia to the Gulf of Mexico1– 4. It is generally believed that their distribution towards the West Africa coast and beyond has been through attachment to the hull of ships since the 16th century. Later they were introduced to the Eastern Pacific via the Panama Canal, Fiji, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and India through ballast waters and also by attachment to the hull of ships. This species is reported to have invaded Indian waters through Visakhapatnam harbour during 1960s (ref. 5), and further reported from Mumbai harbour during 1975 (refs 6, 7).Full Text
