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.
