Abstract

The article presents a comparative study which explored the juvenile growth and reproduction characteristics of Pomacea scalaris and P. canaliculata, the invasive apple snails species. The study performed polynomial regressions and t-tests. Results show that P. scalaris' inferior growth performance and smaller hatching size may have influenced its distribution in Taiwan.
