Established populations of introduced Pomacea maculata, a highly fecund, large species of apple snail native to South America, now occur throughout southeast Asia, in Spain and extensively across the southern United States. Substantial research on non-native apple snails takes place in Southeast Asia and has frequently identified apple snails as P....
In the United States, populations of nonindigenous Pomacea spp. have been reported in at least 10 states, and the rate of spread has been greatest in the southeastern United States, particularly in Florida. Factors impacting successful establishment of molluscs include salinity, pH, and desiccation tolerance. This article reports on median survival...
Introduced apple snails (Ampullariidae: Pomacea) have been responsible for crop and habitat damage in freshwater systems around the world. Two Pomacea species known to damage aquatic vegetation, P. maculata (Island Apple Snail) and P. canaliculata (Channeled Apple Snail), have been introduced into Florida. This investigation was conducted to evalu-...

may pose an additional physiological burden on crabs already attempti...
