Abstract

The snail Triodopsis multilineata (Say) and the slugs Deroceras laeve (Müller) and Deroceras reticulatum (Müller) were successfully reared using inorganic vermiculite as a substrate and carrots and lettuce as food. Discus cronkhitei (Newcomb), Vallonia gracilicosta Reinhardt, Vallonia pulchella (Müller), Vertigo gouldii (Binney), and Zonitoides arboreus (Say) were reared on various types of organic leaf-litter substrates that simulated their natural environments. Triodopsis multilineata was the gastropod most easily reared and maintained.
