This
comprehensive volume focuses exclusively on
sea snails (or gastropods), which are
popular food items and occupy an important
role in the commercial shell craft industry.
Familiar examples include conchs (highly
sought after due to their mild flavor) and
escargot, abalone, and periwinkle snails.
This book covers the profile (habitat,
distribution, morphology, food and feeding,
reproduction, conservation status, etc.) of
about 180 species of commercial edible
marine gastropod molluscs as well as their
nutritional values, commercial importance,
and pharmaceutical value. Also included is
information on their prevalent diseases and
parasites. The informative descriptions are
presented in an easy-to-read style with neat
illustrations.
