It is known for its destructive nature on cultivated crops wherever it occurs and is one of the world’s largest and most damaging land snail pests. The pest is an East African origin, has spread in recent times by travel and trade to many countries. They now widely KEY WORDS : distributed and no longer limited to their region of origin due to several factors viz., high Bioecology, Management, Giant reproductive capacity, voracious feeding habit, inadequate quarantine management and human African snail, Achatina fulica aided dispersal. A. fulica can cause serious economic damage on different crops and extensive rasping (scrapping), defoliation, slime trials, or ribbon like excrement is signs of infestation. In recent times, severe outbreak of this pest has been noticed due to some desirable agricultural and gardening practices like minimum tillage practices and straw retention techniques which help in survival of snails and make seedlings more susceptible to damage. This review paper aims to enlighten on taxonomy, distribution, extent of damage, morphology, biology, ecology, homing behaviour, seasonal incidence, nature of damage, host plants of A.

ZooKeys 453: 1–17. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.453.8605 Abstract Two new species of the genus Zilchistrophia Weyrauch, 1960 are described from Eastern Ecuadorian rain forest: Zilchistrophia hilaryae sp. n. and Z. shiwiarorum sp. n. These two new species extend the distribu- tion of the genus considerably northwards, because congeners have been reported from Peru only. For the first time we present anatomical data (radula, buccal mass, morphology of the foot and the genital struc- ture) of Zilchistrophia species. According to these, the genus belongs to the family Scolodontidae, sub- family Scolodontinae (=“Systrophiini”). The previously assumed systematic relationship of Zilchistrophia with the Asian Corillidae and Plectopylidae based on the similarly looking palatal plicae is not supported. Keywords Systrophiidae, Plectopylidae, Plectopylis, Corillidae, anatomy, taxonomy Copyright Barna Páll-Gergely, Takahiro Asami.

  • Invasive Alien Species in Southern Africa
    GISP Global Invasive Species Programme Ministry of Tourism, Environment United States Government and Natural Resources Republic of Zambia Invasive Alien Species in Southern Africa National Reports & Directory of Resources Edited by Ian A.W. Macdonald, Jamie K. Reaser, Chris Bright, Laurie E. Neville, Geoffrey W. Howard, Sean J. Murphy, and Guy Preston 1 This report is a product of a workshop entitled Prevention and Management of Invasive Alien Species: Forging Cooperation throughout Southern Africa, held by the Global Invasive Species Programme (GISP) in Lusaka, Zambia on 10-12 June 2002. It was sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental Affairs (OESI) grant S-LMAQM-00-H-0167. In-kind assistance was provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Administrative and logistical assistance was provided by the Zambian Ministry of Tourism, Environment and Natural Resources, the U.S. Embassy in Lusaka, Zambia, the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE), and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), as well as all Steering Committee members. The Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History and National Botanical Institute, South Africa kindly provided support during report production. The editors thank Dr Phoebe Barnard of the GISP Secretariat for her very extensive work to finalize the report. The workshop was co-chaired by the Governments of the Republic of Zambia and the United States of America, and by the Global Invasive Species Programme. Members of the Steering Committee included: Mr Lubinda Aongola (Ministry of Tourism, Environment and Natural Resources, Zambia), Mr Troy Fitrell (U.S.

    EENY-494 Terrestrial Slugs of Florida (Gastropoda: Stylommatophora)1 John L. Capinera2 Introduction Florida has only a few terrestrial slug species that are native (indigenous), but some non-native (nonindigenous) species have successfully established here. Many interceptions of slugs are made by quarantine inspectors (Robinson 1999), including species not yet found in the United States or restricted to areas of North America other than Florida. In addition to the many potential invasive slugs originating in temperate climates such as Europe, the traditional source of invasive molluscs for the US, Florida is also quite susceptible to invasion by slugs from warmer climates. Indeed, most of the invaders that have established here are warm-weather or tropical species. Following is a discus- sion of the situation in Florida, including problems with Figure 1.

When closed, the pore can be difficult to locate. slug identification and taxonomy, as well as the behavior, Note that there are two pairs of tentacles, with the larger, upper pair ecology, and management of slugs. bearing visual organs.

Slugs also reduce water loss by opening their internal shell and a few have a greatly reduced external breathing pore (pneumostome) only periodically instead of shell). The slug life-form (with a reduced or invisible shell) having it open continuously. Slugs produce mucus (slime), has evolved a number of times in different snail families, which allows them to adhere to the substrate and provides but this shell-free body form has imparted similar behavior some protection against abrasion, but some mucus also and physiology in all species of slugs.

    Pacific Science (1992), vol. 46, no. 1: 77-85 © 1992 by University of Hawaii Press. All rights reserved Status of Tree Snails (Gastropoda: Partulidae) on Guam, with a Resurvey of Sites Studied by H. E. Crampton in 19201 DAVID R. HOPPER 2 AND BARRY D. SMITH 2 ABSTRACT: Tree snails of the family Partulidae have declined on Guam since World War II. One species, indigenous to the western Pacific, Partu/a radio/ata, is still locally common along stream courses in southern areas of the island. The Mariana Island endemic Samoanajragilis is present but not found in abundance anywhere on Guam. Partu/a gibba, another Mariana endemic, is currently known only from one isolated coastal valley along the northwestern coast, and appears to be in a state ofdecline. The Guam endemic Partu/a sa/ifana was not found in areas where it had been previously collected by earlier researchers, and is thus believed to be extinct. The decline and extinction ofthese snails are related to human activities. The single most important factor is likely predation by snails that were introduced as biological control agents for the giant African snail, Achatina ju/ica. The current, most serious threat is probably the introduced flatworm P/atydemus manokwari. This flatworm is also the likely cause of extinctions ofother native and introduced gastropods on Guam and may be the most important threat to the Mariana Partulidae. TREE SNAILS OF TROPICAL PACIFIC islands have 1970). With the exception of the partulids of been of interest since early exploration of the Society Islands, all are lacking study.

    Giant African Land Snail, Achatina fulica Background • Originally from coastal East Africa and its islands • Has spread to other parts of Africa, Asia, some Pacific islands, Australia, New Zealand, South America, the Caribbean, and the United States • Can be found in agricultural areas, natural forests, planted forests, riparian zones, wetlands, disturbed areas, and even urban areas in warm tropical climates with high humidity • Also known scientifically as Lissachatina fulica • Common names include giant African land snail and giant African snail Hosts Image citation: Cotton - Charles T.

Bartolo, www.bugwood.org, #5359190 Environmental Impacts • Consumes large quantities and numbers of species of native plants – May cause indirect damage to plants due to the sheer numbers of snails being so heavy that the plants beak under their weight – May also be a vector of several plant pathogens • Outcompetes and may even eat native snails • It eats so much it can alter the nutrient cycling • Their shells can neutralize acid soils and therefore damage plants that prefer acidic soils • Indirectly, the biocontrol and chemical control that is used on this species can affect native snail species as well.
