The life cycle, population dynamics and productivity of Melanoides tuberculata (Müller, 1774)(Gastropoda: Prosobranchia: Thairidae) in Hong Kong. Today, most of the Neotropical area must be considered as either invaded or on the way to be so (Pointier, 1999; Quintana et al., 2000). Since then, it quickly invaded the whole inter-tropical belt mainly as a result of the trade in aquatic plants used in aquariophily (Madsen and Frandsen, 1989; Glaubrecht, 2000). One of the most common and cosmopolitan freshwater molluscs, Melanoides tuberculatus is found mostly in lentic habitats, but occasionally in lotic habitats, all over the world. A first description of its distributional area included the inter-tropical belt of the Old World, from Africa to southeastern Asia (Pilsbry and Bequaert, 1927). Livshits G, Fishelson L, 1983.

Pleurolophocercous cercariae emerged from naturally infected Melanoides tuberculata from Minas Gerais State, Brazil, were used to perform experimental infection of laboratory-reared Poecilia reticulata. 117-121.

However, it has to be noted that the impact of M. tuberculata on B. glabrata is variable according to the type of aquatic habitat (Pointier et al., 1993). Boletin de la Sociedad de Historia Natural de las Baleares. The consequences of the invasion of the Neotropical area, especially in some Caribbean islands, may be considered as a benefit for public health, because this snail has eliminated or strongly reduced populations of Biomphalaria glabrata, the main snail host of intestinal schistosomiasis (Pointier and Théron, 2006).

Based on a review of the available chorological and fossil evidence, Glaubrecht (1996) suggests that Melanoides colonized eastern Africa during the Miocene from the oriental region via land bridges forming in the area of the Arabian Peninsula. Indeed, this common aquarium snail is often found as a ’hitch-hiker‘ on aquarium plants. M. tuberculata has often been confused with other thiarids and especially with Tarebiagranifera (Pointier and McCullough, 1989). Positive results have been obtained in dasheen-marshes (Prentice, 1983), water-cress beds (Pointier and Guyard, 1992), ponds (Pointier, 1989) and springs (Pointier et al., 1991) where B. glabrata was eliminated but the biological control failed in the marshy forest located behind mangroves in Guadeloupe and this area is still an active focus of schistosomiasis (Pointier and Jourdane, 2000; Pointier and Théron, 2006). However, the shell of M. tuberculata exhibits an amazing morphological variation (general shape, background colour, ornaments and sculptures) that can simply be revealed by bleaching shells and which allows defining discrete morphs (several dozen described morphs), (Pointier, 1989; Facon et al., 2003). Melanoides tuberculatus. Burch J B, 1980. The aquatic molluscs of the Belgian Congo. Acta Tropica, 77(1):53-60, Pointier JP, McCullough F, 1989. In order to achieve a high population density, the species Melanoides tuberculata and Tarebia granifera require at least 6–8 months. As a consequence, the introduction of M. tuberculata leads to new parasitic cycles in humans in the invaded area. Its distribution in the region of "Niška banja", eastern Serbia is a consequence of its release by aquarists at thermal water stream called "Topla voda". Haynes A, 1985. There is no evidence concerning introduction vectors but aquarium releases is the most probable vector. Biological Invasions, 6:283-293, Facon B, Pointier JP, Glaubrecht M, Poux C, Jarne P, David P, 2003. It is able to colonize disturbed habitats (especially man-made habitats) such as garden ponds, artificial lakes and irrigation systems.
