Rotundaria Houstonensis
''Rotundaria houstonensis'', the smooth pimpleback, is a species of freshwater mussel native to the United States. It is endemic to the Colorado and Brazos River drainages in Texas. This species has experienced a decline due to pollution and habitat loss. In 2011 the United States Fish and Wildlife Service determined that although this species met the criteria for listing under the Endangered Species Act, its listing should be precluded for higher-priority species. Its current legal status is "Candidate". It was formerly classified under ''Quadrula ''Quadrula'' is a genus of freshwater mussels, aquatic bivalve mollusks in the family Unionidae native to rivers of the American Midwest and mid-south. All have thick nacreous shells with well-developed hinge teeth, many also with external she ...'', but in 2012 it was moved to ''Rotundaria'' based on genetic evidence.

Rotundaria Succissa
''Rotundaria succissa'' is a species of bivalve in the family Unionidae. It is native to the United States, where it is endemic to the Apalachicolan Region of Alabama and Florida. Here, it is found in the Choctawhatchee, Escambia, and Yellow River systems. It is considered to be a somewhat "hardy" mussel in terms of tolerating poor water quality, and its populations appear to be stable. It was formerly classified under ''Quadrula ''Quadrula'' is a genus of freshwater mussels, aquatic bivalve mollusks in the family Unionidae native to rivers of the American Midwest and mid-south.

Rotundaria Couchiana
''Rotundaria couchiana'', the Rio Grande monkeyface, is a species of freshwater mussel. It is native to Chihuahua, Mexico and New Mexico and Texas in the United States. This species experienced a tremendous decline due to habitat destruction in the 1800s. The last confirmed living individual was seen near Brackettville, Texas in 1898. This species is likely extinct, although there is the slim possibility that it could persist in poorly surveyed regions on the Rio Grande drainage. It was formerly classified under ''Quadrula ''Quadrula'' is a genus of freshwater mussels, aquatic bivalve mollusks in the family Unionidae native to rivers of the American Midwest and mid-south.
