Last week I've been collecting Urosalpinx cinerea in the Oosterschelde- delta in the Netherlands where it's invasive, together with Ocinebrellus inornatus (which is almost a 200km expansion for this species to the North as normally its habitat is French-Brittany, Atlantic Coast) The presence of the Urosalpinx cinerea is overwhelming with large specimens over 25/30 mm. Can anyone give me some considerations about the growing rate of this species and maximum sizes of the American specimens. Thanks, Eddy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscs To leave this list, click on the following web link: http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conch-l&A=1 Type your email address and name in the appropriate box and click leave the list. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
