Abstract

Many exotic land gastropods have become established in the United States. One of the smallest to be introduced is Cecilioides acicula (Muller), an achatinid snail native to central and western Europe (Pilsbry, 1909: 9). Previous U.S. records of established colonies include Florida, Maryland, and Pennsylvania; numerous interceptions have occurred at East Coast ports on materials from Europe and Central America (Dundee, 1974).
