"> Abstract: Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) is a small
mytilid native to Southeast Asia. It was introduced in
South America in early 1990 and has dispersed from
Argentina to central Brazil, and until 2014 has been
restricted mainly to the Paraná and Uruguay river basins.
The present note reports the occurrence of Limnoperna
fortunei for the first time in the São Francisco River basin
in northeastern Brazil. The establishment of L. fortunei
in these regions will require close attention from the
government and also by society
