Summary.— Body growth and reproductive activity of Helix aperta were studied in laboratory conditions over 40 weeks, from hatching to maturity at 15° C and 20° C, and under two photoperiods : 16h-Light / 8h-Dark and 8h-Light/ 16h-Dark. Only temperature, but not photoperiod, had significant effects on body growth ; snails reared at 15° C grew slower, took more time to develop and reached a smaller adult body weight than those raised at 20° C. In contrast, the results showed some interaction between photoperiod and temperature on reproduction (length of reproductive activity, numbers of matings and layings) and revealed a predominant effect of photoperiod. Number of eggs per clutch was linked to body weight of snails. The best conditions fo...
