“…Thus, adult individuals from the eastern population of Hammam Meskoutine (A17), which have a conical shell with a size in the middle range of the species (SD ¼ 31.572.2 mm) but which are of a small size compared with the other snails from Eastern Maghreb, are characterized by a fully developed genital apparatus, the proportions of which are comparable to those of juveniles from western European populations . On the other hand, snails from the population of Djemila (A14), which can be considered as the most representative of the contact zone (see Guiller et al, 1996), also have a conical shell, but have genitalia of an intermediate size (eg, DIVL), which is about average for the species. Although genital evolution is beyond the scope of this study, such a pattern of covariation should have important mechanical implications leading to an eventual precopulatory isolation between snails from the eastern and western clusters.…”

“…Uma vez que o valor desse índice, apesar de pequeno, foi significativo (P<0,05), pode-se supor que não esteja havendo suficiente troca de material genético entre as subpopulações. Guiller et al (1996) H T = diversidade total; Hs = diversidade dentro das subpopulações; D ST = diversidade entre subpopulações; G ST = proporção da diversidade total atribuível à subdivisão. (Nei, 1973).…”

“…Diversos estudos com marcadores isoenzimáticos envolvendo a espécie H. aspersa foram realizados com populações naturais da Europa e da África (Crook, 1982; Madec, 1991 a e b;Guiller et al, 1994;Guiller et al, 1996;. Entretanto, na literatura consultada, não foram encontrados trabalhos sobre a variabilidade genética de populações domesticadas e tampouco trabalhos com essa espécie no Brasil.…”

“…In open habitats (grassland or hedges) or on south-facing slopes snails are exposed to insolation, and light-coloured individuals (yellow in Cepaea) without pigmented bands have selective advantage, whereas in shaded habitats (forests) or on north-facing slopes the majority is formed by snails with dark-coloured shells (brown in Cepaea) and with pigmented bands which may fuse (currey et al 1964, arnold 1970, bantocK 1974, 1980, bengtSon et al 1976, harvey 1976, JohnSon 1980, 1981, burKe 1989, arter 1990, OżgO 2005, OżgO & kOmOrOwska 2009.…”
