Apple Snail Eggs

Add to Cart

Eggs of one of the species of Pomacea apple snails found in Florida, only the Florida apple snail (Pomacea paludosa) is native. The four non-native species are the island apple snail, channeled apple snail, spike-topped apple snail, and the titan apple snail. Since the eggs of each species can vary in color and size among the same species, it's hard to tell which one these belong to. This cluster of eggs was found in the Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve in Fort Myers, Florida.
