Anentome helena (von dem Busch in Philippi, 1847) is known among aquarium enthusiasts as the "assassin snail" , and is usually kept to prey on other snail species that are considered pests in home aquaria. There have been concerns that, given its prevalence in the ornamental pet trade, it is only a matter of time before this predator is introduced to the wild. We report the first occurrence of established populations of Anentome helena in a non-native habitat, and provide CO1 sequences of the species from the wild.

1. Pomacea paludosa exhibits a variety of defenses against predation, including aposematic eggs and dropoff-burial responses to odors of turtles, odors of crushed conspecific snails, and mechanical disturbance. 2. The conspicuous pinkish-white eggs are laid out of the water and hatch after several weeks incubation. Distastefulness is strong at first but disappears by hatching time. After hatching, snails are apparently tasty food items for a great variety of predators. The brightly colored eggs of other species of Pomacea may also be aposematic, though we have direct evidence for unpalatability in only one other species, Pomacea dolioides. 3. The self-burial alarm responses to turtle odors and intraspecific juices appear identical in form but are not identical in ontogeny. Response to intraspecific juice is not present on hatching, develops gradually over the first few weeks of free existence, and continues throughout the life of the snail. Burial responses to turtle odors are prese...
