Comments: Limnoithona sinensis was present in the Columbia River in the early 1980s but has since disappeared<br />

(Cordell et al., 2008). It was abundant in the upper San Francisco Estuary from 1979 until 1993 but has declined, and<br />

perhaps gone extinct after the introduction of L. tetraspina.<br />
