Dynamics of snail populations of Biomphalaria glabrata and B. straminea under semi-natural conditions Dinâmica das populações dos caramujos Biomphalaria glabrata e B. straminea em condições semi-naturais

Growth curves and mortality rates for populations of Biomphalaria glabrata and B. straminea bred under semi-natural conditions are reponed. Snail populations of the above species were maintained for 220 weeks in indoor cement channels. Data were recorded at 20 week intervals. Crude densities are sig...
