Abstract:

The study evaluated the reproductive characteristics of two African giant land snail subspecies (<em>Archachatina marginata ovum</em> and <em>Archachatina marginata saturalis</em>) fed oil palm fruits in swamp forest zone of Nigeria within a 20 week periods. Reproductive characteristics of the two African giant land snails subspecies evaluated revealed that <em>Archachatina marginata ovum</em> performed better (P < 0.05) than <em>Archachatina marginata saturalis</em> in terms of total number of eggs laid, clutch size, incubation period, percent egg hatchability, egg weight, egg length and e

Abstract:

The experiment was conducted to determine the changes in the biophysical parameters during starvation in three common species of land snails identified in Edo and Delta States. A total of 252 matured healthy snails comprising three species (Archachatina marginata, Archachatina papyracae and Achatina fulica) were used. A completely randomized design was used in a 3 x 4 factorial arrangement. At the end of two weeks acclimation period, feed and water were withdrawn for 4, 8 and 12 weeks. Result shows that A. marginata has significantly (P<0.05) highest initial liveweight. A. papyracae had the

Abstract:

The Giant African Land Snail is one of the largest land snails in the world. In Nigeria, farmers still can not identify the breed Archachatina marginata (Am) and its varieties. In this study, Archachatina marginata varieties were characterized using qualitative characters. A total of 304 animals comprising of 93 Archachatina marginata marginata (Amm), 163 Archachatina marginata suturalis (Ams) and 48 Archachatina marginata ovum (Amo) was used. Five qualitative parameters were collected on each snail and recorded. These parameters are shape of snail (SS), shell colour (SC), colour of labium (CL

A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of utilisation of three leafy vegetable diets (bitter leaf Vernonia amygdalina, fluted pumpkin leaf Telfairia occidentalis and pawpaw leaf Carica papaya) on the growth performance of giant West African snail Archachatina marginata. A total of 90 A. marginata were used for the study. 30 snails were also subjected to three different dietary treatments in three replicates of 10 snails per replicate and fed with the fresh leaves of these vegetables over a period of 12 weeks.

The research work was carried out for 60 days on the Effect of Bambara groundnut diet on the proximate composition of the slime of <em>Archachatina marginata</em><em>.  </em> One hundred and eighty <em>Archchatina marginata</em> snails of approximately equal body weight were used for this study. The snails were randomly divided into 12 experimental groups of 15 snails each, assigned to 4 dietary treatments that were replicated 3 times giving a total of 45 snails per treatment. Results showed that <em>Archachatina marginata</em> snails fed 45% Bambara groundnut diet had significantly

Abstract:

A comparative study of the gametes of two species of Giant African Land Snails; Archachatinu marginata and Achatina achatina was carried out. Three groups of snails weighing 80-100,101-150 and 151-250 g were used in a 3x2 factorial design, with 5 replicates, involving a total of 30 snails. Albumen gland, little hermaphrodite duct, spermotheca and ovo-testis were examined for the presence of ova and spermatozoa. The morphology of the spermatozoa and ova of both species Was studied. Ova were found in the albumen gland and ovo-testis. Spermatozou were only found in the little hermaphrodite duct.

A study was carried out to investigate the comparative morphology and pH of the gut in the Giant African Land Snails, in Archachatina marginata and Achatina achatina respectively. The crop is long, distended and less fleshy with reddish brown coloured juice (5.8 ml volume) in A. marginata, while it is short, compact and fleshy with greenish brown coloured juice (3.2 ml volume) in A. achatina. The digestive gland was heavier (17.36 vs. 15.74 g) in the latter than the former. The absolute weight of the crop in A. marginata was significantly (p<0.05) higher than in A.

Abstract:

To assess the growth performance of juvenile snail (Archachatina marginata) fed different plant leaves, 180 juvenile snails of one month old were divided into 4 treatments (T1, T2, T3 and T4), of 15 snails and 3 replicates in pens equipped with feeders and drinkers. T1 received pawpaw leaves, T2 received cassava leaves, T3 received sweet potato leaves and T4 received blood root leaves. Feed and fresh leaves were measured and served daily, and the leftover also quantified, using an electronic weighing scale (0.01 g precision) to evaluate the feed intake. The results showed that the highest valu

Esta dispersão tem ocorrido a um ritmo alarmante, e muitas destas EEI têm efeitos nefastos tanto na biodiversidade, como nos serviços dos ecossistemas, na saúde humana e nas atividades económicas. Com a tendência crescente de movimentos globais de pessoas e bens, o número e os impactos das EEI deverá aumentar exponen
