Abstract

The changes that occurred in the reproductive system during the breeding season of the land snail Archachatina marginata ovum (Pfeiffer) were investigated from April to July 2005 in collections obtained from snail hunters. These changes were divided into four stages (juvenile stage, mating readiness, egg production and post reproductive), which are described. The observations on the changes in the reproductive organs of A. marginata ovum suggest that the adult population is vulnerable during the breeding season. Management guidelines that will enhance commercial production of the snails are discussed. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

繁殖季节地螺卵的大体解剖及生殖系统特征
2005年4 ~ 7月,对采得的田螺卵(Archachatina marginata ovum, Pfeiffer)在繁殖季节生殖系统的变化进行了调查。这些变化分为四个阶段(幼年期、交配准备期、产卵期和生殖后),并对其进行了描述。对毛边瓢虫卵生殖器官变化的观察表明,毛边瓢虫成虫在繁殖季节是脆弱的。讨论了将促进蜗牛商业化生产的管理准则。版权所有©2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
