Talk:Ampullariidae

message: Pomaceae is a plant family, also called Malaceae and Pyraceae, nowadays usually treated as a subfamily (Maloideae, Pomoideae, Pyroideae) of the family Rosaceae. I'm not sure that it's legitimate for gastropods - uses may be errors for the genus Pomacea, and the family name based on that genus would normally be Pomaceaceae, not Pomaceae.
Hence I think that redirect from Pomaceae to here should be reconsidered. Lavateraguy 13:56, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Apple snails of the genus Pomacea to be probihited in entire EU.
Apple snail imports to be banned in UK. Because they have been found to be able to survive in Spain (Pomacea insularum, delta of river Ebro), all Apple Snail species are now illegal to import into the UK, but not to keep yet. 
Following last month's news article, we are sad to announce that Apple Snails, a long standing favourite of many tropical freshwater fishkeepers, are now to offically become just a fond memory for all European Aquarists. 
As previously reported, a population of snails were found in the Catalonia region of Spain, and as a result the EU Commission have finally imposed the legislation banning the import and breeding of all members of the Genus Pomacea, which includes the familiar tropical Apple Snails. 
Unfortunately Apple Snails already have a reputation for invasiveness, having made themselves at home in both Hawaii and Taiwan where they are a serious pest to food crops.

message: This article does not appear to use sources any more recent than 2009. However, Ampullariidae has undergone some changes since then. See Cowie 2015. Significant changes that would need to be made to this article include that Afropominae is no longer an accepted taxon. Actually, Cowie 2015 does not consider Ampullariidae to have have any subfamilies or tribes. --Equivamp - talk 00:14, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I have updated the article with a reference to an article from Aquatic Eden to clarify that Apple Snails are the common name and that Mystery Snails are in fact a species of Apple Snail.  I'd appreciated if anyone could check my adjustments as I'm fairly new to the concept of editing Wikipedia articles so may have made mistakes in doing so. A. P.
