Sorry to report that the invasive golden clam has been found in Lake Champlain for the first time.

We’re sorry to report that the invasive golden clam has been found in Lake Champlain for the first time.

A volunteer made the discovery last month in South Bay in Whitehall, New York, while working with the Lake Champlain Committee's Champlain Aquatic Invasive Species Monitoring Program (CHAMP). Staff from the LCBP and NYS Department of Environmental Conservation confirmed the specimen.

The clam, which is native to the eastern Mediterranean and Asia, can crowd out native species and increase occurrences of cyanobacteria blooms.

The NYSDEC and LCBP are assessing the extent of the population and the significance of the introduction.

If an established population is confirmed in South Bay, the golden clam will be the 52nd aquatic non-native/invasive species known to be in Lake Champlain.
