RUIZ-GALVAN, Isabel et al. Helix aspersa (Stylommatophora: Helicidae) emergent pest of the apple (Malus Spp.) in Guerrero, Chihuahua. Acta Zool. Mex [online]. 2018, vol.34, e3412161. ISSN 2448-8445. https://doi.org/10.21829/azm.2018.3412161.
In Mexico the apple tree is one of the most important fruit-trees with high economical value. This tree is affected by several pests, one of them is the garden common snail (Helix aspersa). At the locality of Mesa Miñaca, Guerrero, Chihuahua, this snail feeds on apple leaves and also from its fruits. This behavior was observed since 2013 at this locality, and nowadays the causes of its emergence and dispersion remain unknown.
