Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck, 1822) Mating Pair

    This mating pair was collected in the drainage ditch just south of the concrete box culvert on 10/9/2005. The small size of some of the mating males (as small as 38 mm. in some cases) indicates that the species reaches sexual maturity at a very young age.
