Abstract
We found that 7 species and 1 subspecies and 1 variety of mollusks are common in the old channel of the river Zerafshan, where the Amu-Bukhara canal currently flows. Mollusks are divided into 3 ecological groups depending on habitat conditions: pelorheophils (Corbicula fluminalis, C. purpurea, C. (Corbicula) tibetensis, C. (Corbicula) ferghanensis, Cyrena (Corbicula) cor, Sinanodonta gibba, S. puerorum), rheophils (Anodonta (Colletopterum) cyrea subsp. sogdiana) and pelolimnophils (A. piscinalis var. volgensis).
