Hybrids between American Pomatiopsis and Oriental Oncomelania Snails^*

From experimental crossings of male Pomatiopsis lapidaria and female Oncomelania quadrasi, but not from the reciprocal crosses, hybrids, which were intermediate between the parent types and produced an F₂ generation, were obtained. Crosses between male P. lapidaria and female Oncomelania formosana produced offspring which died before adult characters became evident.
