A comprehensive review of the literature on marine mussels was published in 1976, 1but by the early 1990s a wealth of additional material had appeared, not just in the traditional areas of investigation, but also in the newer fields of nutrition, environmental monitoring, population genetics, toxicology, disease and public health. In view of this, in 1992 I edited a thorough compilation of information on mussels in the form of critical review papers by leading authorities, 2titled The Mussel Mytilus . I was also the author of two of the chapters: ‘Systematics and geographic distribution of Mytilus ’ and ‘Genetics of Mytilus ’, reviewing not just population genetics but cytogenetics and selective breeding studies. The book, with an extensive bibliography of more than 2000 references, is still considered the standard reference text on Mytilus . Although out of print, it continues to have a reasonably good citation rate. For example, individual chapters have citations ranging from 47 to 744, with a total of 2404 citations for the complete volume (Google Scholar, December 2020).
