Triodopsis vulgata- Dished Three-tooth Bio 210

 

Reproduction

 


    Snails can either be monoecious, meaning that one organism contains both the female and male sexes, or dioecious, meaning that the sexes are separate(Hickman, 2009).  Snails in the family Polygyridae are monoecious and usually reproduce at night.  This family of snails is distinguished by their reproductive organs.  (Branson, 1962)
