The effect of temperature on herbivory by the omnivorous ectotherm snail Lymnaea stagnalis

open access: yesHydrobiologia, 2018
Rising temperatures likely affect the trophic interactions in temperate regions as global warming progresses. An open question is how a temperature rise may affect consumer pressure and plant abundance in shallow aquatic ecosystems, where most consumers ...

Evaluation of the pollution pressures posed by groups of chemicals on British riverine invertebrate populations

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 106-127, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, rivers receive a diverse range of chemicals, including metals, pesticides, persistent organic pollutants, petrochemicals, human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal care products. However, the extent to which these different chemical groups affect riverine invertebrate communities is not well defined.

Mantle Modularity Underlies the Plasticity of the Molluscan Shell: Supporting Data From Cepaea nemoralis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Molluscs have evolved the capacity to fabricate a wide variety of shells over their 540+ million-year history. While modern sequencing and proteomic technologies continue to expand the catalog of molluscan shell-forming proteins, a complete functional ...

Karyotypes of two European species of the genus Lymnaea with disputable taxonomic status (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Lymnaeidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Karyotypes of Lymnaea corvus and L. occulta are studied for the first time and compared to the original data on Ukrainian populations of L. palustris and L. stagnalis.

Stochastic variation in temperature and food availability impacts growth, but not metabolic rate and exploration in a juvenile amphibian

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3405-3416, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract A substantial proportion of environmental variation is stochastic. While environmental stochasticity plays a key role in the evolution of phenotypic strategies, its short‐term effects within generations remain poorly understood. These short‐term organismal responses are

Do snails Lymnaea stagnalis have phenoloxidase activity in hemolymph? [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2015
Hemocytes and hemolymph of snail Lymnaea stagnalis were analyzed to detect phenoloxidase (PO) activity. No PO activity was found in the hemocytes of snails.

Submicroscopic Changes in the Hepatopancreas of Freshwater Mollusks Infected with Parthenites of Trematodes Echinoparyphium aconiatum (Echinostomida) and Plagiorchis elegans (Plagiorchiida)

open access: yesZoodiversity, 2021
The study contains the results of the electron microscopic research of the hepatopancreas of Lymnaea stagnalis (Linné, 1758) molluscs infected by the Plagiorchis elegans (Rudolfi, 1802) Braun, 1902 and Echinoparyphium aconiatum Dietz, 1909 trematodes ...

Cryptic Reproductive Costs of Heatwaves for Animal Populations

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
Heatwaves are among the most serious threats posed by climate change to biodiversity. They are known to cause mass mortality events in animals and to strongly affect animal reproduction. The impact of heatwaves on reproduction is crucial because it occurs across all stages, from gamete formation to offspring number and development and beyond.

Serotonin receptor cDNA cloned from Lymnaea stagnalis. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1993
Serotonin (5-HT) is a major neurotransmitter that influences various behaviors, neuronal plasticity, learning, and memory in molluscs. Although the physiology of 5-HT transmission in molluscs is well studied, little is known about the pharmacology and diversity of the 5-HT receptor system.

Trematode Infection Prevalence Increases With Snail Richness: Observations From a 4‐Year Study of Snail–Trematode Interactions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We find that higher snail richness correlated with increased overall and generalist trematode infections, while specialist infections showed a similar but nonsignificant trend. The study also highlighted potential host‐switching events and the impact of long‐term sampling on parasite communities, emphasizing the need for continued monitoring of host ...
