   Andrew,

   &#160; why the &#34;mystery&#34; in the name of the Chinese Mystery Snail? Are they edible (to humans?)? They sure look big enough to be eaten, like periwinkles...

   <br/>&#62; Just checked with Jason yes they are the Cipangopaludina chinensis (Gray, 1834) See http://www.reabic.net/journals/bir/2016/3/BIR_2016_McAlpine_etal.pdf for the latest data we have. Any additional information would always be appreciated.

   <br/>&#62; Chinese Mystery Snails? We have been on the lookout for those for some time.

   <br/>&#62; Hi All
   <br/>&#62; Last night I was at the Bridgewater RFAD meeting.
   <br/>&#62; Very interesting meeting.
   <br/>&#62; Mr Leblanc showed a bottle of large snails.
   <br/>&#62; 10 - 12 cm in length would say. He gave a description
   <br/>&#62; but my hearing leaves a little to be desired but I got
   <br/>&#62; they were an invasive species found in some lake.
   <br/>&#62; Does anyone have more info?
   <br/>&#62; Thanks and enjoy the fall
   <br/>&#62; Paul
