Morphological variation of the spermatheca in the garden snail Cantareus aspersus - article in French with an abridged English version [PDF]
, 2007 articleSpermathecal morphology is known to play an important role in postcopulatory sexual selection of many invertebrates. In helicid land snails, the spermatheca is subdivided into tubules, whose number is sometimes subject to a strong inter-individual

Use of the dart apparatus by the hermaphroditic land snail Polymita muscarum (Lea, 1834). [PDF]
, 2007 Many species of pulmonate land snails are equipped with one or more so-called "love darts". Even though the number and shape of these calcareous darts vary considerably between species, dart use has only been investigated in very few species.

Voltage‐dependent intracellular pH in Helix aspersa neurones. [PDF]
The Journal of Physiology, 1987 1. The intracellular pH (pHi) of large nerve cells from the mollusc, Helix aspersa, was measured with pH‐sensitive micro‐electrodes. Cells were held under voltage clamp and the effect on pHi of different holding potentials was determined. 2. Depolarization of the cell from the resting potential (about ‐50 mV) to ‐10 mV produced a fall in pHi that could

Evaluation of bigano snail (Stramonita haemastoma) as a seafood resource
Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2025.Abstract Bigano snail, Stramonita haemastoma, commonly known as oyster drill or red‐mouthed rock whelks, has gained growing interest as a potential seafood product. However, to date, there is a notable lack of preliminary evaluation regarding its commercial viability.

Invasive and non-invasive congeneric Centaurea (Asteraceae) show contrasting patterns of herbivory by snails [PDF]
, 2016 Background and aims – Once introduced into new regions, exotic species often experience shifts in resource allocation in response to the different environmental conditions found in the introduction range. Plants naturally respond to specialist herbivores
