The pattern of embryo growth from encapsulation in the pallial oviduct, deposition of fully formed embryonic snails in the habitat, to sexual maturity in the adult snail are examined. A three-year population study has shown the reproductive period of 'G. vertiginosa' to commence in December and end in June/July with the possibility of three reproductive events per season. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Molluscan Research, 24(0), p. 65-73 | Publisher: | CSIRO Publishing | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1323-5818 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 060808 Invertebrate Biology | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 960810 Mountain and High Country Flora, Fauna and Biodiversity | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal | Publisher/associated links: | http://nla.gov.au/anbd.bib-an11283497 |
