Apple snail / Ampularia (Ampularia australis) 13th February 2005, 03:38
Average Score: 1 (1 vote)

Apple snails are exceptionally well adapted to subtropical regions with periods of drought alternated with periods of excessive rainfall. This adaptation is reflected in their life style: moderately amphibious and being equipped with a shell door enabling the snail to close its shell (to prevent drying out while hiding in the mud).

Las ampularias son moluscos bien adaptados a las regiones subtropicales con períodos de sequía alternados con perídos de lluvia excesiva. Esta adaptación se refleja en su vida: moderadamente anfibios, equipados con un opérculo que le permite al animal cerrar su caparazón (y así impedir que se seque cuando se oculta en el barro)
