A rapid molecular method to detect the invasive golden apple snail Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck, 1822). Levin (2006) detailed the various methods used in taro farming in Hawaii. Halwart M, Bartley D M, 2006. International mechanisms for the control and responsible use of alien species in aquatic ecosystems, with special reference to the golden apple snail. Boston, USA: Houghton Mifflin, 384 pp. First record of living channelled applesnail, Pomacea canaliculata (Pilidae) from Texas. leaves extract on two different size of golden apple snail range within 20-40 mm at 96 hours exposure. The golden apple snail (GAS), Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck), is a large freshwater snail native to tropical and subtropical South America (Halwart 1994c). In Hong Kong, Kwong et al. Ravi Joshi, Philippine Rice Research Institute, Philippines. Weed Research (Tokyo), 39(2):109-113; 9 ref. The crop is vulnerable until the tillers stop elongating, because during this phase of active growth, little silica is deposited and the tissues offer little resistance to the rasping feeding action of a snail’s radula. P. canaliculata may spread naturally predominantly by floating downstream, although crawling upstream is also possible, unless the flow rate is too great (Ranamukhaarachchi and Wikramasinghe, 2006). Tsukuba, Feb.25-27, 1997, pp.170-180. Berkeley, USA: University of California Press, 634-643. Malacologia.

Differences between P. canaliculata and P. maculata. Ideal companions for ampoules will be small live-bearing fish, catfish, tetra, zebrafish, neon. Native and introduced ampullariidae in North America: history, status, and ecology. P. canaliculata was introduced to Taiwan from Argentina in 1979-1981 (Mochida, 1991; Naylor, 1996; Cheng and Kao, 2006). Chim S, 1998.

Douangboupha B, Khamphoukeo K, 2006. Golden apple snails – omnivorous snails. And Spike-topped golden apple snails are undoubtedly the most important of them. In the past, the highly confused taxonomy of South American Ampullariidae led some authors to consider P.canaliculata to perhaps be extremely widely distributed naturally in South America (e.g. Ecology and management of the apple snail in Kyushu, Japan. They were introduced to Asia, from South America, in the 1980s as potential food for people, but it unfortunately became a major pest of rice. Golden apple snails in China. The ecological studies on the Ampullaria snails (Cyclophoracea: Ampullaridae). Volume 6, 2nd part. Take for example the Giant Apple Snail, Pomacea maculata, which grows at least twice the size of a traditional apple snail - sometimes larger than a softball. They are totally safe with any fish, shrimp, or plants, and are completely peaceful. Flakes, chips or granules that have fallen to the bottom will be found by snails and eaten. The following are just a few of the many questions that could be answered by additional research. Matsukura et al. Teo SuSin, 2004. Identification uncertain. Cruz MS de la, Joshi RC, Martin AR, 2001.

There are different species of apple snail. Distribution of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in the Hawaiian Islands (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae). Probably release by aquarium owners, Pest or symptoms usually visible to the naked eye, Stems (above ground)/Shoots/Trunks/Branches, GISD/IASPMR: Invasive Alien Species Pathway Management Resource and DAISIE European Invasive Alien Species Gateway. It has also been reported as having been introduced by the pet trade, although the main ampullariid in the pet trade is P. diffusa rather than P. canaliculata. Mochida O, 1991. The most often used in rice cultivation are methods of crop establishment, seeding rate and water management. Distribution of the apple snail and damage in rice fields of Thailand and Vietnam. Other countries may also consider it a quarantine pest. Apple snails are a fairly large group of snails in the Ampullariidae family. When taken good care ofsome apple snail species can reach a large size (15 cm / 6 inch diameter in case of Pomacea maculata, sometimes faulty referred to as Ampullarius gigas). Most destructive stage is when the length of the shell is from 10 mm (about the size of a corn seed) to 40 mm (about the size of a pingpong ball). The Golden Apple Snail is amphibious. Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. Otherwise, there had been no reports of apple snails as pests until 1993, when several hectares of young rice in southern Brazil were seriously infested and 30% of seedlings disappeared; thereafter, rice damage was sporadically observed every year and was subsequently found in all regions of the state by 1997 (Petrini et al., 1998). In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Little is known of microorganisms associated with ampullariids that might be useful in control, nor of parasitoids that attack either the snails or their eggs. Rosario J, Moquete C, 2006. Diseases of guinea-pigs and golden hamsters important in practice. Metaldehyde is rendered ineffective when the water temperature falls below 10°C, so it is appropriate for use in the tropics (Cheng, 1989). The biology of ampullariids has been reviewed by Cowie (2002) and Cowie and Hayes (2012), among others, with much of the information in these review articles derived from P. canaliculata. International Rice Research Notes, 26:20-21. Current status of the non-indigenous molluscs in Chile, with the first record of Otala punctata (Müller, 1774) (Gastropoda: Helicidae) in the country and new records for Cornu aspersum (Müller, 1774) and Deroceras laeve (Müller, 1774). by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Exp. These large and striking snails clean algae off of glass, plants, and decorations, they eat hair algae, and they keep your substrate clean and the correct color. Similar range expansions related to climate change could also occur elsewhere, for instance in Korea and Japan. Golden apple snails in Korea. Although usually confined initially to aquaculture facilities, the snails either escape or are deliberately released into agricultural or natural wetlands. Malacologia, 50(1/2):351-357. http://malacologia.fmnh.org, Tsai HungChin, Chen YaoShen, Yen ChuanMin, 2013. However, the damage potential of P. canaliculata in rice depends on water depth, seedling age and pest density, in decreasing order of importance (Teo, 2003). Recently, you can find blue, white, and even almost black snails. Malacological Review, 25(1-2):1-12. Golden Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. No economic costs are readily available.Hawaii. Freshwater Biology, 55(6):1191-1204. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/loi/fwb. Although its shell is coloured similarly to that of P. canaliculata and is similar in size, the suture between successive whorls is not deeply channelled, making it fairly readily distinguished, at least as adults, from P. canaliculata. Alien non-marine snails and slugs of priority quarantine importance in the United States: a preliminary risk assessment. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. But many fish very often disturb unhurried mollusks. Acosta BO, Pullin RSV, 1991. Compendium record.

Statewide strategic control plan for apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in Hawai’i. Ambio, 25(7):443-448. Prot. Among New World genera, the three species of Marisa are readily distinguished from species of Pomacea as they are planispirally coiled (the coils are almost flat) and are thus known commonly as giant ramshorn snails. Aquaculture. Lack of mitochondrial DNA diversity in invasive apple snails (Ampullariidae) in Hawaii. A direct-seeded crop is vulnerable for 4 weeks after establishment; a transplanted dapog crop is vulnerable for 3 weeks, and wetbed seedlings are vulnerable for 2 weeks. Yang TingBao, Wu ZhongDao, Lun ZhaoRong, 2013. Letelier S, Soto-Acuna S, 2008. P. canaliculata is a freshwater snail restricted to wetland areas that are flooded for at least part of the year. Cerutti R, 1998. C. carpio crack the snail's shell, ingest the soft tissue and spit out the broken shell; thus they can feed on snails up to 12 mm high. While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they … Dreon MS, Ituarte S, Heras H, 2010. They rapidly reproduce and can become a … While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they will hardly leave the water and will breathe by their gills. Aquatic snails; permit requirements for importation and interstate movement. The golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata, research and management in Thailand. Lettuce, cassava leaves, sweet potato leaves, taro leaves and papaya leaves have been suggested, but baits have to be significantly more attractive to the snails than the crop is, and it is possible that providing additional food as baits would enhance snail numbers (Cowie, 2002). Use of the most toxic products has been prohibited in many countries for some time (Cowie, 2002; Schnorbach et al., 2006), but many chemicals are still used illegally. No rice cultivars are resistant to P. canaliculata feeding, but modern high-tillering plant types are those most able to compensate for the damage. Once introduced, it is further possible that it spreads naturally by floating downstream, to a limited extent by crawling upstream, during flooding, and even attached to birds (Levin et al., 2006). And although both P. maculata and P. canaliculata possess two dorsal penis sheath glands, P. maculata lacks the medial gland, whereas P. canaliculata lacks the basal gland. Since then its distribution gradually expanded until by 1998 it occurred in 28 prefectures throughout south and central Japan (Wada, 2006). It was initially introduced to Mochida O, 1991. Duong Ngoc Cuong, 2006. In: EPPO Global database, Paris, France: EPPO. The term Apple snail is often used to describe several species, including Mystery snails. However, the rapid spread of P. canaliculata within Asia and Hawaii following introduction has been predominantly human mediated. The golden apple snail, Pomacea sp., a serious pest of lowland rice in the Philippines. Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute, 516-525.

Mercado-Laczko AC, Lopretto EC, 1998. It feeds on aquatic plants and can devastate rice (in South-east Asia), taro (in Hawaii) and other aquatic or semi-aquatic crops. Increasing seedling number per hill, to 8, 6, 4 and 2 for 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-week-old seedlings, respectively, also reduced snail damage. The Ampullariidae are unusual because they have both a gill and a lung, with the … The foot is oval with a squarish anterior edge. Golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in Indonesia. Injuring habits of the apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck) to the rice plant. Nonetheless, the development of the two types of tissue varies with maturity and they may appear undifferentiated in younger individuals. Hollingsworth RG, Cowie RH, 2006. Anderson (1993), perhaps mistakenly, reported ‘1,000 mature snails per square metre’ in the Philippines. A.]. (2012). Most impotant long distance pathway, P. canaliculata has been suggested as a weed control agent in rice paddies, Perhaps important in Asia where large areas are flooded during the wet season, Released into rice paddies and taro fields to provide human food, Can be transported passively downstream and can crawl upstream to a limited extent, Some instance reported but not major pathway globally. Fecundity of the exotic applesnail, Pomacea insularum. Most of them are reasonably plant safe. by Joshi RC, Sebastian LC]. Radular morphology of Pomacea maculata and Pomacea canaliculata. Transplanting is therefore preferable to direct seeding because the seedlings are older and more resistant to the snails. Biological Invasions, 8(2):137-147. http://www.springerlink.com/content/pl301j1326431386/?p=835eadae08864172912f07cdf3927ed5&pi=2. In the Philippines, increasing seedling age at planting from 2 to 5 weeks resulted in significant reductions in snail damage in terms of missing hills. Evaluation of different duck varieties for the control of the golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in transplanted and direct seeded rice. Pomacea canaliculata critical point-dried penial sheath showing two glands on the dorsal surface and penis partially extended from penis pouch. Golden apple snail utilization in small-scale aquaculture in the Philippines. It is thus well suited for living in rice paddies, taro patches and similar artificial habitats. Hand picking of snails and removal of egg masses is a widespread control method and is relatively effective, especially on a small scale, but extremely time consuming (FAO, 1989; Cowie, 2002; Levin, 2006; Levin et al., 2006; Hendarsih-Suharto et al.

Malacologia, 47(1/2):397 pp. Malacologia, 43(1/2):13-23. A crop transplanted with wetbed seedlings under low-risk snail densities (two snails per square metre) can be protected either by transplanting older seedlings (4 weeks old) or using periodic drainage. For example, 10 ha of infested paddy fields in Kuala Semeling, Kedah, were successfully cleared by the introduction of seawater in 1991. More information about modern web browsers can be found at http://browsehappy.com/. Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 88(1):67-71. Although the shells of many Pomacea species may be extremely variable, as in P. canaliculata, the shells of some species are sufficiently characteristic that they are readily distinguished from P. canaliculata. 2):23-25. http://www.hjmph.org/HJMPH_Jun13Suppl2.pdf. Hayes K A, Joshi R C, Thiengo S C, Cowie R H, 2008. For example, when P. maculata (and perhaps P. canaliculata) were first reported in Cambodia in August 1995 (Preap et al., 2006), recommendations were made by November 2005 to eradicate them immediately, as they were only known from a suburban concrete pond and concrete back yard tanks in Phnom Penh, a clay jar in Svay Rieng and from a few small ponds in Prey Veng (Cowie, 1995a; Preap et al., 2006).

(2006), respectively. Litsinger and Estaño (1993) therefore tested combinations of cultural and chemical methods. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Nonetheless, in some regions, most notably southern China, raw P. canaliculata are considered a delicacy, but unfortunately this has resulted in people becoming infected with Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the rat lungworm; the snails were also taken to restaurants in Beijing with the same consequences, although this did prompt the Chinese authorities to take more note of the problem (MacDonald, 2006; Lv et al., 2009b; Wang et al., 2010). Wallingford, UK: CABI, CABI, Undated a. CABI Compendium: Status as determined by CABI editor. (2012) considered P. maculata and P. diffusa to be non-invasive, despite P. maculata being one of the two major invasive species in Asia (Hayes et al., 2008), the USA (Rawlings et al., 2007) and Europe (López et al., 2010), and P. diffusa being the most important apple snail in the aquarium trade (Perera and Walls, 1996) and as a result transported to many parts of the world (Hayes et al., 2008), although it does not appear to have become a major pest. Effect of seedling age and seedling number per hill on snail damage in irrigated rice. When adding a Gold Ina Snail to an aquarium, tank size, water conditions and the tank’s limitations are some of the … Kwong KingLun, Wong PakKi, Lau S S S, Qiu JainWen, 2008. Malacologia, 49(2):383-392. http://malacologia.fmnh.org. (2008, 2009a, 2012), including both molecular and morphological analyses of variation among New World ampullariids, has shown that the range of P. canaliculata is restricted to the Lower Paraná, Uruguay and La Plata basins, although based on habitat similarity and watershed connections it is possible that it may also occur in the lower reaches of the Upper Paraná and parts of southern Brasil. The first indication of field damage is a reduced plant stand. > 0°C, dry winters), China, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, USA, Vietnam, Introduced as human food. In shape, golden apple snails are generally globose, but the size and appearance of the shell is highly variable. Adults Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice). Genetic divergence of the genus Pomacea (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) distributed in Japan, and a simple molecular method to distinguish P. canaliculata and P. insularum. In Cambodia, it is not clear whether P. canaliculata has been definitively recorded  or has been confused with P. maculata (Hayes et al., 2008). Increasing contact with and consumption of P. canaliculata could lead to increased incidence. ICLARM Conference Proceedings, No. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Golden Apple Snail in Cambodia. Los Baños, Laguna: SEAMEO Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture, 151-157. Winter temperatures may limit the northern spread of P. canaliculata in Japan (Ito, 2002), although it can alter its behaviour and acclimate to these cooler temperatures to some degree, permitting over-wintering further north than would otherwise be possible (Wada and Matsukura 2007, Matsukura et al., 2009). However, P. canaliculata is still a serious pest in areas of Kyushu where very young seedlings are transplanted and where it rains heavily during the transplanting season. Hawaii Journal of Medicine and Public Health, 72(6, Suppl. In addition, the presence of the snail is a constraint in promoting direct seeding in Kyushu (Wada, 1997, 2006; Yusa and Wada, 1999). Paper presented at the in-house review of on-going projects sponsored by the Bureau of Agricultural Research, Quezon City, Philippines, 13 pp. Other Apple snails can vary quite a bit in size and colour but the term Mystery is usually used only to describe Pomacea diffusa. In the past, this species has been misidentified as P. bridgesii, which is generally larger. McLane WA, 1939. Tamburi NE, Martín PR, 2009. Taylor EJ, Arthur JS, Bowen ID, 1996.

The golden apple snail (GAS), Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck), is a large freshwater snail native to tropical and subtropical South America (Halwart 1994c). In Hong Kong, Kwong et al. Ravi Joshi, Philippine Rice Research Institute, Philippines. Weed Research (Tokyo), 39(2):109-113; 9 ref. The crop is vulnerable until the tillers stop elongating, because during this phase of active growth, little silica is deposited and the tissues offer little resistance to the rasping feeding action of a snail’s radula. P. canaliculata may spread naturally predominantly by floating downstream, although crawling upstream is also possible, unless the flow rate is too great (Ranamukhaarachchi and Wikramasinghe, 2006). Tsukuba, Feb.25-27, 1997, pp.170-180. Berkeley, USA: University of California Press, 634-643. Malacologia.

Differences between P. canaliculata and P. maculata. Ideal companions for ampoules will be small live-bearing fish, catfish, tetra, zebrafish, neon. Native and introduced ampullariidae in North America: history, status, and ecology. P. canaliculata was introduced to Taiwan from Argentina in 1979-1981 (Mochida, 1991; Naylor, 1996; Cheng and Kao, 2006). Chim S, 1998.

Douangboupha B, Khamphoukeo K, 2006. Golden apple snails – omnivorous snails. And Spike-topped golden apple snails are undoubtedly the most important of them. In the past, the highly confused taxonomy of South American Ampullariidae led some authors to consider P.canaliculata to perhaps be extremely widely distributed naturally in South America (e.g. Ecology and management of the apple snail in Kyushu, Japan. They were introduced to Asia, from South America, in the 1980s as potential food for people, but it unfortunately became a major pest of rice. Golden apple snails in China. The ecological studies on the Ampullaria snails (Cyclophoracea: Ampullaridae). Volume 6, 2nd part. Take for example the Giant Apple Snail, Pomacea maculata, which grows at least twice the size of a traditional apple snail - sometimes larger than a softball. They are totally safe with any fish, shrimp, or plants, and are completely peaceful. Flakes, chips or granules that have fallen to the bottom will be found by snails and eaten. The following are just a few of the many questions that could be answered by additional research. Matsukura et al. Teo SuSin, 2004. Identification uncertain. Cruz MS de la, Joshi RC, Martin AR, 2001.

There are different species of apple snail. Distribution of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in the Hawaiian Islands (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae). Probably release by aquarium owners, Pest or symptoms usually visible to the naked eye, Stems (above ground)/Shoots/Trunks/Branches, GISD/IASPMR: Invasive Alien Species Pathway Management Resource and DAISIE European Invasive Alien Species Gateway. It has also been reported as having been introduced by the pet trade, although the main ampullariid in the pet trade is P. diffusa rather than P. canaliculata. Mochida O, 1991. The most often used in rice cultivation are methods of crop establishment, seeding rate and water management. Distribution of the apple snail and damage in rice fields of Thailand and Vietnam. Other countries may also consider it a quarantine pest. Apple snails are a fairly large group of snails in the Ampullariidae family. When taken good care ofsome apple snail species can reach a large size (15 cm / 6 inch diameter in case of Pomacea maculata, sometimes faulty referred to as Ampullarius gigas). Most destructive stage is when the length of the shell is from 10 mm (about the size of a corn seed) to 40 mm (about the size of a pingpong ball). The Golden Apple Snail is amphibious. Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. Otherwise, there had been no reports of apple snails as pests until 1993, when several hectares of young rice in southern Brazil were seriously infested and 30% of seedlings disappeared; thereafter, rice damage was sporadically observed every year and was subsequently found in all regions of the state by 1997 (Petrini et al., 1998). In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Little is known of microorganisms associated with ampullariids that might be useful in control, nor of parasitoids that attack either the snails or their eggs. Rosario J, Moquete C, 2006. Diseases of guinea-pigs and golden hamsters important in practice. Metaldehyde is rendered ineffective when the water temperature falls below 10°C, so it is appropriate for use in the tropics (Cheng, 1989). The biology of ampullariids has been reviewed by Cowie (2002) and Cowie and Hayes (2012), among others, with much of the information in these review articles derived from P. canaliculata. International Rice Research Notes, 26:20-21. Current status of the non-indigenous molluscs in Chile, with the first record of Otala punctata (Müller, 1774) (Gastropoda: Helicidae) in the country and new records for Cornu aspersum (Müller, 1774) and Deroceras laeve (Müller, 1774). by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Exp. These large and striking snails clean algae off of glass, plants, and decorations, they eat hair algae, and they keep your substrate clean and the correct color. Similar range expansions related to climate change could also occur elsewhere, for instance in Korea and Japan. Golden apple snails in Korea. Although usually confined initially to aquaculture facilities, the snails either escape or are deliberately released into agricultural or natural wetlands. Malacologia, 50(1/2):351-357. http://malacologia.fmnh.org, Tsai HungChin, Chen YaoShen, Yen ChuanMin, 2013. However, the damage potential of P. canaliculata in rice depends on water depth, seedling age and pest density, in decreasing order of importance (Teo, 2003). Recently, you can find blue, white, and even almost black snails. Malacological Review, 25(1-2):1-12. Golden Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. No economic costs are readily available.Hawaii. Freshwater Biology, 55(6):1191-1204. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/loi/fwb. Although its shell is coloured similarly to that of P. canaliculata and is similar in size, the suture between successive whorls is not deeply channelled, making it fairly readily distinguished, at least as adults, from P. canaliculata. Alien non-marine snails and slugs of priority quarantine importance in the United States: a preliminary risk assessment. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. But many fish very often disturb unhurried mollusks. Acosta BO, Pullin RSV, 1991. Compendium record.

Statewide strategic control plan for apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in Hawai’i. Ambio, 25(7):443-448. Prot. Among New World genera, the three species of Marisa are readily distinguished from species of Pomacea as they are planispirally coiled (the coils are almost flat) and are thus known commonly as giant ramshorn snails. Aquaculture. Lack of mitochondrial DNA diversity in invasive apple snails (Ampullariidae) in Hawaii. A direct-seeded crop is vulnerable for 4 weeks after establishment; a transplanted dapog crop is vulnerable for 3 weeks, and wetbed seedlings are vulnerable for 2 weeks. Yang TingBao, Wu ZhongDao, Lun ZhaoRong, 2013. Letelier S, Soto-Acuna S, 2008. P. canaliculata is a freshwater snail restricted to wetland areas that are flooded for at least part of the year. Cerutti R, 1998. C. carpio crack the snail's shell, ingest the soft tissue and spit out the broken shell; thus they can feed on snails up to 12 mm high. While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they … Dreon MS, Ituarte S, Heras H, 2010. They rapidly reproduce and can become a … While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they will hardly leave the water and will breathe by their gills. Aquatic snails; permit requirements for importation and interstate movement. The golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata, research and management in Thailand. Lettuce, cassava leaves, sweet potato leaves, taro leaves and papaya leaves have been suggested, but baits have to be significantly more attractive to the snails than the crop is, and it is possible that providing additional food as baits would enhance snail numbers (Cowie, 2002). Use of the most toxic products has been prohibited in many countries for some time (Cowie, 2002; Schnorbach et al., 2006), but many chemicals are still used illegally. No rice cultivars are resistant to P. canaliculata feeding, but modern high-tillering plant types are those most able to compensate for the damage. Once introduced, it is further possible that it spreads naturally by floating downstream, to a limited extent by crawling upstream, during flooding, and even attached to birds (Levin et al., 2006). And although both P. maculata and P. canaliculata possess two dorsal penis sheath glands, P. maculata lacks the medial gland, whereas P. canaliculata lacks the basal gland. Since then its distribution gradually expanded until by 1998 it occurred in 28 prefectures throughout south and central Japan (Wada, 2006). It was initially introduced to Mochida O, 1991. Duong Ngoc Cuong, 2006. In: EPPO Global database, Paris, France: EPPO. The term Apple snail is often used to describe several species, including Mystery snails. However, the rapid spread of P. canaliculata within Asia and Hawaii following introduction has been predominantly human mediated. The golden apple snail, Pomacea sp., a serious pest of lowland rice in the Philippines. Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute, 516-525.

Mercado-Laczko AC, Lopretto EC, 1998. It feeds on aquatic plants and can devastate rice (in South-east Asia), taro (in Hawaii) and other aquatic or semi-aquatic crops. Increasing seedling number per hill, to 8, 6, 4 and 2 for 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-week-old seedlings, respectively, also reduced snail damage. The Ampullariidae are unusual because they have both a gill and a lung, with the … The foot is oval with a squarish anterior edge. Golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in Indonesia. Injuring habits of the apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck) to the rice plant. Nonetheless, the development of the two types of tissue varies with maturity and they may appear undifferentiated in younger individuals. Hollingsworth RG, Cowie RH, 2006. Anderson (1993), perhaps mistakenly, reported ‘1,000 mature snails per square metre’ in the Philippines. A.]. (2012). Most impotant long distance pathway, P. canaliculata has been suggested as a weed control agent in rice paddies, Perhaps important in Asia where large areas are flooded during the wet season, Released into rice paddies and taro fields to provide human food, Can be transported passively downstream and can crawl upstream to a limited extent, Some instance reported but not major pathway globally. Fecundity of the exotic applesnail, Pomacea insularum. Most of them are reasonably plant safe. by Joshi RC, Sebastian LC]. Radular morphology of Pomacea maculata and Pomacea canaliculata. Transplanting is therefore preferable to direct seeding because the seedlings are older and more resistant to the snails. Biological Invasions, 8(2):137-147. http://www.springerlink.com/content/pl301j1326431386/?p=835eadae08864172912f07cdf3927ed5&pi=2. In the Philippines, increasing seedling age at planting from 2 to 5 weeks resulted in significant reductions in snail damage in terms of missing hills. Evaluation of different duck varieties for the control of the golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in transplanted and direct seeded rice. Pomacea canaliculata critical point-dried penial sheath showing two glands on the dorsal surface and penis partially extended from penis pouch. Golden apple snail utilization in small-scale aquaculture in the Philippines. It is thus well suited for living in rice paddies, taro patches and similar artificial habitats. Hand picking of snails and removal of egg masses is a widespread control method and is relatively effective, especially on a small scale, but extremely time consuming (FAO, 1989; Cowie, 2002; Levin, 2006; Levin et al., 2006; Hendarsih-Suharto et al.

Malacologia, 47(1/2):397 pp. Malacologia, 43(1/2):13-23. A crop transplanted with wetbed seedlings under low-risk snail densities (two snails per square metre) can be protected either by transplanting older seedlings (4 weeks old) or using periodic drainage. For example, 10 ha of infested paddy fields in Kuala Semeling, Kedah, were successfully cleared by the introduction of seawater in 1991. More information about modern web browsers can be found at http://browsehappy.com/. Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 88(1):67-71. Although the shells of many Pomacea species may be extremely variable, as in P. canaliculata, the shells of some species are sufficiently characteristic that they are readily distinguished from P. canaliculata. 2):23-25. http://www.hjmph.org/HJMPH_Jun13Suppl2.pdf. Hayes K A, Joshi R C, Thiengo S C, Cowie R H, 2008. For example, when P. maculata (and perhaps P. canaliculata) were first reported in Cambodia in August 1995 (Preap et al., 2006), recommendations were made by November 2005 to eradicate them immediately, as they were only known from a suburban concrete pond and concrete back yard tanks in Phnom Penh, a clay jar in Svay Rieng and from a few small ponds in Prey Veng (Cowie, 1995a; Preap et al., 2006).

(2006), respectively. Litsinger and Estaño (1993) therefore tested combinations of cultural and chemical methods. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Nonetheless, in some regions, most notably southern China, raw P. canaliculata are considered a delicacy, but unfortunately this has resulted in people becoming infected with Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the rat lungworm; the snails were also taken to restaurants in Beijing with the same consequences, although this did prompt the Chinese authorities to take more note of the problem (MacDonald, 2006; Lv et al., 2009b; Wang et al., 2010). Wallingford, UK: CABI, CABI, Undated a. CABI Compendium: Status as determined by CABI editor. (2012) considered P. maculata and P. diffusa to be non-invasive, despite P. maculata being one of the two major invasive species in Asia (Hayes et al., 2008), the USA (Rawlings et al., 2007) and Europe (López et al., 2010), and P. diffusa being the most important apple snail in the aquarium trade (Perera and Walls, 1996) and as a result transported to many parts of the world (Hayes et al., 2008), although it does not appear to have become a major pest. Effect of seedling age and seedling number per hill on snail damage in irrigated rice. When adding a Gold Ina Snail to an aquarium, tank size, water conditions and the tank’s limitations are some of the … Kwong KingLun, Wong PakKi, Lau S S S, Qiu JainWen, 2008. Malacologia, 49(2):383-392. http://malacologia.fmnh.org. (2008, 2009a, 2012), including both molecular and morphological analyses of variation among New World ampullariids, has shown that the range of P. canaliculata is restricted to the Lower Paraná, Uruguay and La Plata basins, although based on habitat similarity and watershed connections it is possible that it may also occur in the lower reaches of the Upper Paraná and parts of southern Brasil. The first indication of field damage is a reduced plant stand. > 0°C, dry winters), China, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, USA, Vietnam, Introduced as human food. In shape, golden apple snails are generally globose, but the size and appearance of the shell is highly variable. Adults Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice). Genetic divergence of the genus Pomacea (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) distributed in Japan, and a simple molecular method to distinguish P. canaliculata and P. insularum. In Cambodia, it is not clear whether P. canaliculata has been definitively recorded  or has been confused with P. maculata (Hayes et al., 2008). Increasing contact with and consumption of P. canaliculata could lead to increased incidence. ICLARM Conference Proceedings, No. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Golden Apple Snail in Cambodia. Los Baños, Laguna: SEAMEO Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture, 151-157. Winter temperatures may limit the northern spread of P. canaliculata in Japan (Ito, 2002), although it can alter its behaviour and acclimate to these cooler temperatures to some degree, permitting over-wintering further north than would otherwise be possible (Wada and Matsukura 2007, Matsukura et al., 2009). However, P. canaliculata is still a serious pest in areas of Kyushu where very young seedlings are transplanted and where it rains heavily during the transplanting season. Hawaii Journal of Medicine and Public Health, 72(6, Suppl. In addition, the presence of the snail is a constraint in promoting direct seeding in Kyushu (Wada, 1997, 2006; Yusa and Wada, 1999). Paper presented at the in-house review of on-going projects sponsored by the Bureau of Agricultural Research, Quezon City, Philippines, 13 pp. Other Apple snails can vary quite a bit in size and colour but the term Mystery is usually used only to describe Pomacea diffusa. In the past, this species has been misidentified as P. bridgesii, which is generally larger. McLane WA, 1939. Tamburi NE, Martín PR, 2009. Taylor EJ, Arthur JS, Bowen ID, 1996.

Neck RW, 1986. The golden apple snail (GAS), Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck), is a large freshwater snail native to tropical and subtropical South America (Halwart 1994c). Sometimes, for one reason or another, snails die. Ozawa A, Makino T, 1997. Human parasitic meningitis caused by Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection in Taiwan. Under high-risk conditions (dapog seedlings or direct seeding) the crop requires three control methods (using older seedlings, water management and removing snails by hand). Tamaru CS, Ako H, Tamaru CCT, 2006. Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice), 475-482. The golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) (Mollusca: Ampullariidae), a potential invader of fresh water habitats in Australia. The genus name Ampullaria is now considered a junior synonym of the genus name Pila (Cowie, 1997; ICZN, 1999), which is a genus of African and Asian Ampullariidae, and this species is placed in the genus Pomacea, a New World genus. Two studies have developed rapid molecular detection protocols. In: Molluscs as crop pests. In North America P.canaliculata is now present in California, Arizona and Florida (Rawlings et al., 2007; K.A. Ants in tropical irrigated rice: distribution and abundance, especially of Solenopsis geminata (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). Cowie RH, 2011. Lamarck had previously described a different, fossil marine snail from France also as Ampullariacanaliculata (Lamarck, 1804). Publications, Inc, 121 pp. Matsukura et al. Pomacea canaliculata, commonly known as the golden apple snail or the channeled apple snail, is a species of large freshwater snail with gills and an operculum, an aquatic gastropod mollusc in the family Ampullariidae, the apple snails. 199-213. In: Introduction of Germplasm and Quarantine Procedures. The two species are extremely similar, and differences in size and subtle qualitative differences in shell shape fall within the range of individual variation, making them very difficult to distinguish morphologically (Hayes et al., 2012). All scale bars = 100 µm. It is advisable to remove dead snails from the aquarium as soon as possible so that they do not impair water quality.

Utilization of weed extracts for the control of golden snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck). Registration of Pomacea sp. However, they can be distinguished, as described by Hayes et al. The tentacles are long and tapering, highly extensible and with large but short eye stalks at their outer bases. Anderson B, 1993. In Papua New Guinea. It can be distinguished from P. canaliculata by its more square-shouldered whorls, as indicated above, and the fact that the suture (the junction between successive whorls) is not deeply channelled, the character that gives P. canaliculata its scientific name. Molluscan Research, 24(3):139-148. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Apple Snails can help contribute to reducing nitrates. Cowie (2002), citing various sources, reported longevity of P. canaliculata ranging from 119 days to 5 years, based on data from Argentina, the Philippines, Japan, Hawaii and Taiwan (these reports probably do refer to P. canaliculata and not P. maculata), with higher temperatures leading to shorter longevity. Invasions in agriculture: assessing the cost of the golden apple snail in Asia. Molecular analysis confirmed Argentina, and specifically Buenos Aires province, as the source of the species and suggested multiple independent introductions (Hayes et al., 2008). In Malaysia, P. canaliculata (possibly confounded with P. maculata) was introduced many times during the 1990s. Snails, especially females, in search of a place for masonry, are able to crawl out of the aquarium, and for them, it usually ends in failure – the snails fall to the floor and dry out if they are not found in time. The objective is to prevent older snails feeding on young plants. North America However, other ampullariid species have been introduced to various localities in attempts to control the snail vectors of schistosomes, and have had major impacts on those snail populations. In: The Festivus, 30 25-27, 29. An infestation of Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck, 1804) in Lake Miramar, San Diego, California. AACL Bioflux. It coils dextrally – that is, when viewed with the apex uppermost the aperture is on the right side of the shell. Throughout much of their natural range in South America, snail kites (Rhostramus sociabilis) and limpkins (Aramus guarauna) are major predators of various apple snail species, which are their almost exclusive food (Peterson, 1980; Perera and Walls, 1996). Unless otherwise indicated, much of the information in this section on biology and ecology is from Cowie (2002) and Cowie and Hayes (2012). The potential of the invasive snail Pomacea canaliculata as a predator of various life-stages of five species of freshwater snails. [ed. The golden apple snail (its body size traits were shown in Fig. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Pointier JP, Théron A, Imbert-Establet D, Borel G, 1991. Adults of these two species can also be distinguished, though less reliably, especially by non-experts, by shell morphology and internal anatomy, notably of the penial sheath (Hayes et al., 2012). In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails, [ed. Lopez MA, Altaba CR, Andree KB, Lopez V, 2010. Okuma M, Tanaka K, Sudo S, 1994.

In Hong Kong, detritus was found more frequently than macrophytes in the stomachs of P. canaliculata; the snails also ate cyanobacteria, green algae and diatoms (Kwong et al., 2010). However, accelerated metabolism also has disadvantages: the life span is reduced. P. diffusa is the scientific name for the ever popular Mystery snail. The apple snail family or Ampullariidae are common freshwater snails in many tropical area's around the world and several species have made their way to the aquarium trade to become a popular pet snail. First record of the exotic apple snail Pomacea canaliculata (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) in Mexico, with remarks on its spreading in the Lower Colorado River. Many species that molecular studies have shown to be distinct (Hayes et al., 2008, 2009b), had in the past been confused with P. canaliculata, to the extent that some authors suggested that many of these nominal species might well be synonyms of P. canaliculata and therefore that its range extended throughout much of South America (see Hylton Scott, 1957; Cazzaniga, 2002, 2006; Cowie, 2002). Bulletin of Entomological Research, 88(4):467-476. There are more than 100 species of apple snail that exists. [ed. The shell spire is generally low. The golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) (Mollusca: Ampullariidae), a potential invader of fresh water habitats in Australia. Karyotype description of Pomacea patula catemacensis (Caenogastropoda, Ampullariidae), with an assessment of the taxonomic status of Pomacea patula. The golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck), an increasingly important pest in rice, and methods of control with Bayluscid®. A number of plants have been shown to have molluscicidal properties, but they are not long lasting and some are toxic to fish (Agaceta et al., 1981; Cheng, 1989; Morallo-Rejesus et al., 1990; Alba et al., 1993; Banoc and Noriel, 1991; Lobo et. Yield loss also increased from ca 2500 t in 1985 to 25,000 t in 1991 (Rice IPM Network, 1991). by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. , 2007. Must have calcium ( GH greater than 8d) in the water and a pH greater than 7.0 or the shell will dissolve and the snail will die. by Joshi, R. C. \Sebastian, L. C.]. It is worth noting that in snails bred at home, thus a parasite simply can not be there, because contact with the main carriers – wild rats – is excluded. by Joshi RC, Sebastian LC]. Old species and new concepts in the taxonomy of Pomacea (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae). Two to four ducks per 100 m² were effective in controlling young snails (Vega 1991; Pantua et al., 1992; Rosales and Sagun, 1997; Cagauan, 1999), but some farmers reject this practice because duck faeces contain fluke cercariae that penetrate the skin, which results in itchiness or paddy-field dermatitis (Cagauan and Joshi, 2003). A mechanical device called an egg clapper has been developed to enable farmers to crush egg masses without stooping over (Awadhwal and Quick, 1991). In: Wada T, Yusa Y, Joshi RC, eds. Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice). It has been listed as an invasive species owing to its characteristics of feeding on a variety of crops and rapidly reproducing. They are the same thing. Falling from a height can also lead to injury to the sink. Pomacea maculata critical point-dried penial sheath, showing two glands on the dorsal surface. at the Seventh International Congress on Medical and Applied Malacology (7th ICMAM) Los Baños, Laguna, SEAMEO Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture (SEARCA), Philippines. However, they are only able to distinguish P. canaliculata from P. maculata (Matsukura et al., 2008) or P. canaliculata from P. maculata and P. diffusa (misidentified as P. bridgesii) (Cooke et al., 2012) and therefore could easily fail to detect one of the many other closely related species (Hayes et al., 2009a). by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Cowie RH, 2002. Various other scientific names have been used for P. canaliculata that place it in incorrect, invalid or mis-spelled genus names, that identify it as a different species, or mis-spell the species names. Species in the Old World genus Pila, which also bear large, round, generally brownish or greenish dextrally coiling shells, have a brittle and calcified as opposed to a corneous and somewhat flexible operculum. In taro, damage to the corms is readily visible, and active snails are easily seen feeding on both corms and leaves that have drooped so that their tips break the water surface. Lobo, PPG, Ligas MA, Laysa FD, 1992. Because germinating seeds are much more susceptible to the snail than transplanted seedlings (Wada et al., 1999), P. canaliculata is a more important rice pest in countries where direct seeding is widely practised, such as in the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute, 528-529. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails. This record (López et al., 2010) is of P.maculata, but subsequent data suggest that both P. maculata and P. canaliculata may be present. All the information on natural enemies of P. canaliculata in its non-native range in the Natural Enemies table is from Yusa (2006). Koch E, Winik BC, Castro-Vazquez A, 2009. Other Pomacea species are similar, e.g., Pomacea maculata.. Distribution. Leguminosae). Sometimes referred to as the Apple Snail (although these are generally species that are much larger) the Gold Mystery Snail is popular among hobbyists for a variety of reasons. Some time later the snails spread to Hawaii, South-West Asia and even Florida. Bull. Sta., 42:23-29 (Japanese with English summary). Mortality of P. canaliculata is high at water temperatures above 32–35°C, although in one study little reduction in activity levels occurred over five days at 35°C (Seuffert et al., 2010). Bishop Museum Occasional Papers No. Other Pomacea spp. Its southern limit in Argentina seems to be limited by temperature (Seuffert and Martín, 2009) and this may limit is spread to higher latitudes in its invaded range (Seuffert et al., 2010, 2012). In addition to touch, the snail has a well-developed sense of smell, which allows it to accurately find food. Adalla CB, Morallo-Rejesus B, 1989. Eradication of a sylvatic focus of Schistosoma mansoni using biological control by competitor snails. Unfortunately, sexual dimorphism in mollusks is not expressed, therefore, the most accurate way will be to acquire at least 6 individuals in the aquarium. Cagauan AG, Tiongco ER, Rodriguez C, 1998.

However, there are snails that are not only useful but are real decoration for any aquarium. In the Philippines, Basilio (1991) reported that 0.5, 1 and 8 snails (20-30 mm shell height)/m² caused 6.5, 19 and 93% missing rice hills. Evaluation of starflower (Calotropis gicantea) against golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in lowland transplanted rice. 50 (1/2), 351-357. http://malacologia.fmnh.org. Apple Snails are sensitive spikes in ammonia. Cowie RH, Hayes KA, 2012. (2012). For example, 90% of the total area damaged by P. canaliculata in Japan has always been in Kyushu, where it rains heavily in the transplanting season, thus flooding the fields. Suzuki Y, Matsumura M, Arimura K, Urano S, Wada T, Yusa Y, Ichinose K, 2000. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Sinives S, 2002. In: Abhandlungen des Naturwissenschaftlichen Vereins in Hamburg (NF) (Memoirs of the Natural Science Association in Hamburg), 29 1-256. Although many species of gastropods can act as hosts of A. cantonensis (Wallace and Rosen, 1969; Kim et al., 2013; Thiengo et al., 2013), P. canaliculata is of particular significance in southern China, where it has become a delicacy when eaten raw, resulting in numerous cases of angiostrongyliasis (Lv et al., 2009a, 2011; Cowie, 2013; Yang et al., 2013). Applied Entomology and Zoology, 37(4):543-550. The term Apple snail is often used to describe several species, including Mystery snails. Other Pomacea spp. Rapid response is therefore crucial. No single tactic is superior to a combination of various approaches for P. canaliculata control (Rice IPM Network, 1991; Cagauan and Joshi, 2003; Litsinger and Estaño, 1993; Cowie, 2002; Levin, 2006). Apple snails share some characteristics in general. Assoc. Did not survive over winter. Fukushima Y, Nakamura S, Fujiyoshi N, 2001. The most recognizable sign of the presence of P. canaliculata (and other related apple snail species) is their bright-pink egg masses, which are laid on emergent vegetation (including wetland crops) and other hard surfaces above the water line, such as rocks, logs and bridge supports (Hayes et al., 2009b). by Joshi RC, Sebastian LC]. The Thai Government spent US$880-38,000 every year in the mid-1990s for a snail control campaign that encouraged farmers to collect snails and egg masses (Chompoonut, 1997, 1998) and in the decade of the 2000s they spent approximately US$1 million per year to control Pomacea (perhaps including both P. canaliculata and P. maculata) (Sawangproh and Poonswad, 2010). the Philippines; Naylor, 1996). Annales du Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle (Annals of the National Museum of Natural History), 5(25):28-36. This type of snail has both lungs and gills. 528-529.

Journal of Experimental Biology, 212(16):2558-2563. http://jeb.biologists.org/. The level of damage may have stopped increasing during the 1990s because of the application of various control methods. Rice farmers often breed ducks and herd them into rice fields to eat the snails in the period before transplanting (Cowie, 2002; Wada, 2004). 25:65-67. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice), 155-167. Some colors of apple snails can be mixed to create different colors. Freshwater snail Pomacea bridgesii (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae), life history traits and aquaculture potential. However, in a single element and commercial organic fertilizer trial, no apple snail mortality was observed. \White, G. G.]. The apple snails are popular aquarium-pets because of their attractive appearance and size. It is listed among ‘100 of the world's worst invasive species’ (Lowe et al., 2000). Chang W-C, 1985. 21-26.

Ravi Joshi, Philippine Rice Research Institute, Philippines. Weed Research (Tokyo), 39(2):109-113; 9 ref. The crop is vulnerable until the tillers stop elongating, because during this phase of active growth, little silica is deposited and the tissues offer little resistance to the rasping feeding action of a snail’s radula. P. canaliculata may spread naturally predominantly by floating downstream, although crawling upstream is also possible, unless the flow rate is too great (Ranamukhaarachchi and Wikramasinghe, 2006).

Douangboupha B, Khamphoukeo K, 2006. Golden apple snails – omnivorous snails. And Spike-topped golden apple snails are undoubtedly the most important of them. In the past, the highly confused taxonomy of South American Ampullariidae led some authors to consider P.canaliculata to perhaps be extremely widely distributed naturally in South America (e.g. Ecology and management of the apple snail in Kyushu, Japan. They were introduced to Asia, from South America, in the 1980s as potential food for people, but it unfortunately became a major pest of rice. Golden apple snails in China. The ecological studies on the Ampullaria snails (Cyclophoracea: Ampullaridae). Volume 6, 2nd part. Take for example the Giant Apple Snail, Pomacea maculata, which grows at least twice the size of a traditional apple snail - sometimes larger than a softball. They are totally safe with any fish, shrimp, or plants, and are completely peaceful. Flakes, chips or granules that have fallen to the bottom will be found by snails and eaten. The following are just a few of the many questions that could be answered by additional research. Matsukura et al. Teo SuSin, 2004. Identification uncertain. Cruz MS de la, Joshi RC, Martin AR, 2001.

They are made from selected raw materials and contain a large number of spirulina algae. Out of South America: multiple origins of non-native apple snails in Asia. 100 of the world's worst invasive alien species: a selection from the global invasive species database. There are different species of apple snail. Distribution of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in the Hawaiian Islands (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae). Probably release by aquarium owners, Pest or symptoms usually visible to the naked eye, Stems (above ground)/Shoots/Trunks/Branches, GISD/IASPMR: Invasive Alien Species Pathway Management Resource and DAISIE European Invasive Alien Species Gateway. It has also been reported as having been introduced by the pet trade, although the main ampullariid in the pet trade is P. diffusa rather than P. canaliculata. Mochida O, 1991. The most often used in rice cultivation are methods of crop establishment, seeding rate and water management. Distribution of the apple snail and damage in rice fields of Thailand and Vietnam. Other countries may also consider it a quarantine pest. Apple snails are a fairly large group of snails in the Ampullariidae family. When taken good care ofsome apple snail species can reach a large size (15 cm / 6 inch diameter in case of Pomacea maculata, sometimes faulty referred to as Ampullarius gigas). Most destructive stage is when the length of the shell is from 10 mm (about the size of a corn seed) to 40 mm (about the size of a pingpong ball). The Golden Apple Snail is amphibious. Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. Otherwise, there had been no reports of apple snails as pests until 1993, when several hectares of young rice in southern Brazil were seriously infested and 30% of seedlings disappeared; thereafter, rice damage was sporadically observed every year and was subsequently found in all regions of the state by 1997 (Petrini et al., 1998). In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Little is known of microorganisms associated with ampullariids that might be useful in control, nor of parasitoids that attack either the snails or their eggs. Rosario J, Moquete C, 2006. Diseases of guinea-pigs and golden hamsters important in practice. Metaldehyde is rendered ineffective when the water temperature falls below 10°C, so it is appropriate for use in the tropics (Cheng, 1989). The biology of ampullariids has been reviewed by Cowie (2002) and Cowie and Hayes (2012), among others, with much of the information in these review articles derived from P. canaliculata. International Rice Research Notes, 26:20-21. Current status of the non-indigenous molluscs in Chile, with the first record of Otala punctata (Müller, 1774) (Gastropoda: Helicidae) in the country and new records for Cornu aspersum (Müller, 1774) and Deroceras laeve (Müller, 1774). by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Exp. These large and striking snails clean algae off of glass, plants, and decorations, they eat hair algae, and they keep your substrate clean and the correct color. Similar range expansions related to climate change could also occur elsewhere, for instance in Korea and Japan. Golden apple snails in Korea. Although usually confined initially to aquaculture facilities, the snails either escape or are deliberately released into agricultural or natural wetlands. Malacologia, 50(1/2):351-357. http://malacologia.fmnh.org, Tsai HungChin, Chen YaoShen, Yen ChuanMin, 2013. However, the damage potential of P. canaliculata in rice depends on water depth, seedling age and pest density, in decreasing order of importance (Teo, 2003). Recently, you can find blue, white, and even almost black snails. Malacological Review, 25(1-2):1-12. Golden Apple Snails are excellent scavengers in large tanks with minimal plants. No economic costs are readily available.Hawaii. Freshwater Biology, 55(6):1191-1204. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/loi/fwb. Although its shell is coloured similarly to that of P. canaliculata and is similar in size, the suture between successive whorls is not deeply channelled, making it fairly readily distinguished, at least as adults, from P. canaliculata. Alien non-marine snails and slugs of priority quarantine importance in the United States: a preliminary risk assessment. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. But many fish very often disturb unhurried mollusks. Acosta BO, Pullin RSV, 1991. Compendium record.

Statewide strategic control plan for apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in Hawai’i. Ambio, 25(7):443-448. Prot. Among New World genera, the three species of Marisa are readily distinguished from species of Pomacea as they are planispirally coiled (the coils are almost flat) and are thus known commonly as giant ramshorn snails. Aquaculture. Lack of mitochondrial DNA diversity in invasive apple snails (Ampullariidae) in Hawaii. A direct-seeded crop is vulnerable for 4 weeks after establishment; a transplanted dapog crop is vulnerable for 3 weeks, and wetbed seedlings are vulnerable for 2 weeks. Yang TingBao, Wu ZhongDao, Lun ZhaoRong, 2013. Letelier S, Soto-Acuna S, 2008. P. canaliculata is a freshwater snail restricted to wetland areas that are flooded for at least part of the year. Cerutti R, 1998. C. carpio crack the snail's shell, ingest the soft tissue and spit out the broken shell; thus they can feed on snails up to 12 mm high. While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they … Dreon MS, Ituarte S, Heras H, 2010. They rapidly reproduce and can become a … While there is a sufficient level of dissolved oxygen in the water, they will hardly leave the water and will breathe by their gills. Aquatic snails; permit requirements for importation and interstate movement. The golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata, research and management in Thailand. Lettuce, cassava leaves, sweet potato leaves, taro leaves and papaya leaves have been suggested, but baits have to be significantly more attractive to the snails than the crop is, and it is possible that providing additional food as baits would enhance snail numbers (Cowie, 2002). Use of the most toxic products has been prohibited in many countries for some time (Cowie, 2002; Schnorbach et al., 2006), but many chemicals are still used illegally. No rice cultivars are resistant to P. canaliculata feeding, but modern high-tillering plant types are those most able to compensate for the damage. Once introduced, it is further possible that it spreads naturally by floating downstream, to a limited extent by crawling upstream, during flooding, and even attached to birds (Levin et al., 2006). And although both P. maculata and P. canaliculata possess two dorsal penis sheath glands, P. maculata lacks the medial gland, whereas P. canaliculata lacks the basal gland. Since then its distribution gradually expanded until by 1998 it occurred in 28 prefectures throughout south and central Japan (Wada, 2006). It was initially introduced to Mochida O, 1991. Duong Ngoc Cuong, 2006. In: EPPO Global database, Paris, France: EPPO. The term Apple snail is often used to describe several species, including Mystery snails. However, the rapid spread of P. canaliculata within Asia and Hawaii following introduction has been predominantly human mediated. The golden apple snail, Pomacea sp., a serious pest of lowland rice in the Philippines. Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute, 516-525.

Mercado-Laczko AC, Lopretto EC, 1998. It feeds on aquatic plants and can devastate rice (in South-east Asia), taro (in Hawaii) and other aquatic or semi-aquatic crops. Increasing seedling number per hill, to 8, 6, 4 and 2 for 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-week-old seedlings, respectively, also reduced snail damage. The Ampullariidae are unusual because they have both a gill and a lung, with the … The foot is oval with a squarish anterior edge. Golden apple snail, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) in Indonesia. Injuring habits of the apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck) to the rice plant. Nonetheless, the development of the two types of tissue varies with maturity and they may appear undifferentiated in younger individuals. Hollingsworth RG, Cowie RH, 2006. Anderson (1993), perhaps mistakenly, reported ‘1,000 mature snails per square metre’ in the Philippines. A.]. (2012). Most impotant long distance pathway, P. canaliculata has been suggested as a weed control agent in rice paddies, Perhaps important in Asia where large areas are flooded during the wet season, Released into rice paddies and taro fields to provide human food, Can be transported passively downstream and can crawl upstream to a limited extent, Some instance reported but not major pathway globally. Fecundity of the exotic applesnail, Pomacea insularum. Most of them are reasonably plant safe. by Joshi RC, Sebastian LC]. Radular morphology of Pomacea maculata and Pomacea canaliculata. Transplanting is therefore preferable to direct seeding because the seedlings are older and more resistant to the snails. Biological Invasions, 8(2):137-147. http://www.springerlink.com/content/pl301j1326431386/?p=835eadae08864172912f07cdf3927ed5&pi=2. In the Philippines, increasing seedling age at planting from 2 to 5 weeks resulted in significant reductions in snail damage in terms of missing hills. Evaluation of different duck varieties for the control of the golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) in transplanted and direct seeded rice. Pomacea canaliculata critical point-dried penial sheath showing two glands on the dorsal surface and penis partially extended from penis pouch. Golden apple snail utilization in small-scale aquaculture in the Philippines. It is thus well suited for living in rice paddies, taro patches and similar artificial habitats. Hand picking of snails and removal of egg masses is a widespread control method and is relatively effective, especially on a small scale, but extremely time consuming (FAO, 1989; Cowie, 2002; Levin, 2006; Levin et al., 2006; Hendarsih-Suharto et al.

Cazzaniga, 2002; Cowie and Thiengo, 2003). meal as substitute for fishmeal in diets of cage-cultured Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) at three stocking density levels. Cheng E Y, Kao ChingHua, 2006. In this way the snails caused a major change in ecosystem state and function. P. canaliculata (and P. maculata) seem particularly voracious and generalist compared to other Pomacea species (Morrison and Hay, 2011).

Malacologia, 47(1/2):397 pp. Malacologia, 43(1/2):13-23. A crop transplanted with wetbed seedlings under low-risk snail densities (two snails per square metre) can be protected either by transplanting older seedlings (4 weeks old) or using periodic drainage. For example, 10 ha of infested paddy fields in Kuala Semeling, Kedah, were successfully cleared by the introduction of seawater in 1991. More information about modern web browsers can be found at http://browsehappy.com/. Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 88(1):67-71. Although the shells of many Pomacea species may be extremely variable, as in P. canaliculata, the shells of some species are sufficiently characteristic that they are readily distinguished from P. canaliculata. 2):23-25. http://www.hjmph.org/HJMPH_Jun13Suppl2.pdf. Hayes K A, Joshi R C, Thiengo S C, Cowie R H, 2008. For example, when P. maculata (and perhaps P. canaliculata) were first reported in Cambodia in August 1995 (Preap et al., 2006), recommendations were made by November 2005 to eradicate them immediately, as they were only known from a suburban concrete pond and concrete back yard tanks in Phnom Penh, a clay jar in Svay Rieng and from a few small ponds in Prey Veng (Cowie, 1995a; Preap et al., 2006).

Snail name: apple snail: Common names: apple snails, golden apple snail, freshwater snails, spike topped apple snail: Size: can grow big up to 15 cm: Tank size 10 l for large ones or 2 gallons: Life span 5 to 10 years: Temperature: 18 to 28 °C or 64 to 82 °F: pH: 6.5-7.8: GH: 8-18: Color: most popular yellow. (2006), respectively. Litsinger and Estaño (1993) therefore tested combinations of cultural and chemical methods. In: Global advances in ecology and management of golden apple snails [ed. Nonetheless, in some regions, most notably southern China, raw P. canaliculata are considered a delicacy, but unfortunately this has resulted in people becoming infected with Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the rat lungworm; the snails were also taken to restaurants in Beijing with the same consequences, although this did prompt the Chinese authorities to take more note of the problem (MacDonald, 2006; Lv et al., 2009b; Wang et al., 2010). Wallingford, UK: CABI, CABI, Undated a. CABI Compendium: Status as determined by CABI editor. (2012) considered P. maculata and P. diffusa to be non-invasive, despite P. maculata being one of the two major invasive species in Asia (Hayes et al., 2008), the USA (Rawlings et al., 2007) and Europe (López et al., 2010), and P. diffusa being the most important apple snail in the aquarium trade (Perera and Walls, 1996) and as a result transported to many parts of the world (Hayes et al., 2008), although it does not appear to have become a major pest. Effect of seedling age and seedling number per hill on snail damage in irrigated rice. When adding a Gold Ina Snail to an aquarium, tank size, water conditions and the tank’s limitations are some of the … Kwong KingLun, Wong PakKi, Lau S S S, Qiu JainWen, 2008. Malacologia, 49(2):383-392. http://malacologia.fmnh.org. (2008, 2009a, 2012), including both molecular and morphological analyses of variation among New World ampullariids, has shown that the range of P. canaliculata is restricted to the Lower Paraná, Uruguay and La Plata basins, although based on habitat similarity and watershed connections it is possible that it may also occur in the lower reaches of the Upper Paraná and parts of southern Brasil. The first indication of field damage is a reduced plant stand. > 0°C, dry winters), China, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, USA, Vietnam, Introduced as human food. In shape, golden apple snails are generally globose, but the size and appearance of the shell is highly variable. Adults Los Baños, Philippines: Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice). Genetic divergence of the genus Pomacea (Gastropoda: Ampullariidae) distributed in Japan, and a simple molecular method to distinguish P. canaliculata and P. insularum. In Cambodia, it is not clear whether P. canaliculata has been definitively recorded  or has been confused with P. maculata (Hayes et al., 2008). Increasing contact with and consumption of P. canaliculata could lead to increased incidence. ICLARM Conference Proceedings, No. by Joshi, R. C.\Sebastian, L. S.]. Golden Apple Snail in Cambodia. Los Baños, Laguna: SEAMEO Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture, 151-157. Winter temperatures may limit the northern spread of P. canaliculata in Japan (Ito, 2002), although it can alter its behaviour and acclimate to these cooler temperatures to some degree, permitting over-wintering further north than would otherwise be possible (Wada and Matsukura 2007, Matsukura et al., 2009). However, P. canaliculata is still a serious pest in areas of Kyushu where very young seedlings are transplanted and where it rains heavily during the transplanting season. Hawaii Journal of Medicine and Public Health, 72(6, Suppl. In addition, the presence of the snail is a constraint in promoting direct seeding in Kyushu (Wada, 1997, 2006; Yusa and Wada, 1999). Paper presented at the in-house review of on-going projects sponsored by the Bureau of Agricultural Research, Quezon City, Philippines, 13 pp. Other Apple snails can vary quite a bit in size and colour but the term Mystery is usually used only to describe Pomacea diffusa. In the past, this species has been misidentified as P. bridgesii, which is generally larger. McLane WA, 1939. Tamburi NE, Martín PR, 2009. Taylor EJ, Arthur JS, Bowen ID, 1996.
