	Procambarus clarkii - français
		Despite being fond of all types of meat, crayfishes do not harm ampullariidae or sound fishes; nevertheless they clean and eat every dead body in the aquarium, what might prove quite useful for hobbyists who have some difficulty in spotting dead snails - the latter being a major source of pollution.
		After the crayfish consumes the flesh, there remains a nice clean shell, useful for the breeding of shell dwelling fishes or as decoration, on top of a shelf with the rest of the shell collection.
		As Ampullariidae - even in the best maintenance conditions - don't find all the elements required to their development, they eat the moult.

		There is a lot of confusion in the nomenclatura of apple snails: the family name is often referred to as Ampullariidae, sometimes as Pilidae (invalid).
		This genus description did fulfil the requirements of the nomenclature rules, although it was later restricted to the Old World Ampullariidae, with the exception of the West African genera Saulea (Gray, 1867) and Afropomus (Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927).
		The family name Ampullariidae Gray, 1824 should therefore be considered as the valid name and this has been accepted by the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature OPINION 1913, placing Pilidae Preston, 1915 on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Family-Group Names in Zoology.

	Ampullariidae (Family)
		The family Ampullariidae - commonly referred to as apple snails - are large tropical and subtropical amphibious freshwater gastropod mollusks.
		The Ampullariidae are peculiar because they have both gills and lungs, the mantle cavity being divided to separate the two types of respiratory structures.
		The Family Ampullariidae is a member of the Superfamily Viviparacea.

		The remaining sampled gastropods, the Planorbidae Biomphalaria and Drepanotrema, as well as the Ampullariidae Pomacea were genera largely known as very common in Amazonian environments.
		The phylogeny and biogeography of Neotropical freshwater gastropods is poorly known.
		The Neotropical freshwater gastropod fauna is represented by at least nine family-level taxa with cosmopolitan or Gondwanan distributions (e.g., Ampullariidae, Ancylidae, Chilinidae, Hydrobiidae, Lymnaeidae, Physidae, Planorbidae, Succinidae, Thiaridae).

		The Ampullariidae family name is also sometimes referred to as Pilidae.
		The sex of a snail can be determined if they are the same age and have been kept in the same environment and are fed the same foods in which case then females will be larger than males.

	A. PROJECT SUMMARY (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Ampullariidae are freshwater snails predominantly distributed in humid tropical and sub-tropical habitats in Africa, South and Central America and South-East Asia.
		In this review I will summarize relevant aspects of the snails’ biology, focusing on the pest species; I will then outline the agricultural problems they are causing and the control measures that have, generally unsuccessfully, been implemented; and finally I will make suggestions for future approaches and needs in order to address the problems.
		Berthold’s (1991) biogeographic analysis of the Ampullariidae as a Gondwanan group originating in Africa suggested that they are not found in Australia simply because the Australian plate split off from Gondwana before they spread to it.

		This volume is therefore not only of interest to malacologists; the general aspects presented also make it important for systematists, evolutionary biologists, biogeographers, ecologists, physiologists and experts in tropical medicine.

	Freshwater Snails
		Different snails require different water hardness; members of the Ampullariidae family need a dH of 12-18, while the other snails listed here prefer a hardness of 8-10.
		There is even confusion about the family name of some of these snails, some referring to it as Ampullariidae, and others, Pilidae.
		They use a siphon, much like a snorkel, which the snail can extend out to the water surface allowing the snail to breathe while submerged.

	Pilidae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pilidae, commonly known as apple snails are a tropical family of gastropods.
		The Pilidae [synonym Ampullariidae] are peculiar because they have both gills and lung, the mantle cavity being divided to separate the two types of respiratory structures.
		In 1824 Gray introduced the family name Ampullariidae (type genus Ampullaria Lamarck, 1799), including both the Old and New World taxa.Preston (1915) introduced the family name Pilidae (type genus Pila Röding, 1798) to replace the family name Ampullariidae, acknowledging the generic name Ampullaria Lamarck, 1799 a junior synonym of Pila Röding, 1798.

	Ampullariidae in English
		They are not equipped to breathe well underwater - their lungs are not fully built to process this element.
		To fill them with air, the ampullariidae are forced to come close to the surface and "inhale".
		When necessary, the ampullariidae move to the surface and pump as much air as their lungs can contain.
