Middendorffinaia mongolica

Middendorffinaia mongolica, formerly Middendorffinaia shadini, is a species of unionid mussel endemic to South Primorye, Russia. Its specific name honours Russian zoologist Vladimir Zhadin.[5] Middendorffinaia shadini inhabits the river Razdolnaya, its tributaries Rakovka, Olenevka, Komarovka and Kiparisovka, as well as rivers Artemovka, Barabashevka and some parts of the rivers Tesnaya and Gladkaya.[6]
