ABSTRACT
Snails are members of the phylum
moliusca, they represent a large and varied group of shelled gastropoc!
mollusks in the class gastropocla which contains at least 80,000 species and is
the second largest phylum in animal kingdom. The members of this group are
found throughout the world, they are diverse in size and ecologically, being
terrestrial, fresh water or marine. Example, of terrestrial species is flelix
pomatia which is an edible snail. (Roger Bryant, 1 994). The external
characteristics of snail include a spiral shell, flattened loot and anterior
head with prominent tentacle. When provoked, the. snail can withdraw into it's
shell and in some cases, the shell opening can be closed by a horny or
calcerous plate called an operelulum. (Grolier Family [ncyclopedia). There are
three principal types of edible snails that are been marketed for human
consumption in Abia State namely, Archachatina maginata, Ac/ia! ma acha!ina and
Aclicitinafulica. There are still some other types that are been consumed by
some other people in different places, as the types of edible snails varies
from place to place. (Roger Bryant, 1994).
