Abundance, Distribution, and Diversity of Freshwater Snail and Prevalences of Their Infection by Cercaria of Fasciola gigantica and Schistosoma spp at Mayo-Vreck River, Far North Region of Cameroon. [PDF]
J Trop Med, 2023 Malacological and parasitological studies were conducted from April 2020 to March 2021 to determine the abundance and distribution of molluscs and cercariae of Schistosoma spp and Fasciola gigantica. Collected molluscs are exposed to strong light to induce cercarial release. Mollusc densities were higher at station 1 (Gamak) than in station 8 (Patakai),

Temperature-dependent versatility shapes invasiveness in the tropical freshwater gastropod Melanoides tuberculata [PDF]
NeoBiotaInvasive species cause major losses in biodiversity worldwide and alter ecosystem functioning. Once established, invaders are often impossible to remove from ecosystems, especially in eco-insular systems such as the African Great Lakes.

Multiple invasions and predation: The impact of the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus on invasive and native snails. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated predator–prey interactions involving Thiarid snails that invaded Martinique several decades ago and the recently introduced predator, the redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus), unveiling several critical insights: (1) Crayfish predation impact on snail survival: Our experiments indicate snail survival rates ranging from 50% to 80 ...

Distribution, abundance, population structures, and potential impacts of the invasive snail, Tarebia granifera in aquatic ecosystems of north-eastern South Africa. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe study investigates Tarebia granifera, a highly successful aquatic invader, in South Africa's Limpopo and Phongolo River systems. The study revealed that T. granifera dominates in habitats where it is present, negatively impacting native molluscan species. Interestingly, the study did not find significant correlations between T.
