The growth of juvenile Bithynia tentaculata (Proso-branchia,Bithyniidae) was measured under controlled laboratory conditionsover 18 months. The animals were fed with different concentrationsof suspended food (Chlamydomonas reinhardii at 2, 000 cells.ml1and at 10, 000 cells.ml1), solid food (lettuce) and combinationsof both (lettuce with 2, 000 cells.ml1 and with 10, 000cells.ml1 Chlamydomonas). The growth of all animals wasmeasured weekly, and after 1 years final shell sizes, shelldry weights and ash-free dry weights, as well as soft body dryweights and ash-free dry weights were determined. Survival rateof the animals increased from 20% when fed with 2, 000 algalcells.ml1 to 75% with lettuce and 10, 000 cells.ml1as food. Final shell sizes and shell weights were not influencedby food, but soft body dry weights were significantly reducedwhen animals were fed on suspended food only. Reproduction (i.e.egg laying) was observed at the end of the second summer whenlettuce (with or without algal addition) was given as food.The ecological consequences of these results are discussed.

1. The freshwater pulmonate snail Radix peregra voluntarily and regularly fed on its faeces, whereas Bithynia tentaculata (Prosobranchia) did not.
2. With high-quality faeces as food (faeces with C : N-values below ten) Radix could grow and survived for 11 weeks. Growth was 24–30% of that achieved with control food (lettuce, Chlamydomonas and Tetramin), and body mass was close to the expected value.
3. As with real food, the percentage organic content of faeces was reduced during gut passage, with the exception of very low-quality faeces.
4. Faeces contained living cells of green algae ( Chlamydomonas reinhardii ) and diatoms ( Achnanthes lanceolata, Eunotia pectinalis ), which survived the gut passage of R. peregra and B. tentaculata . Faecal material was also rich in bacteria, with up to 150 × 106 cells mg–1 dry mass. Bacteria increased in abundance in faeces which had been evacuated for 7 days or more.
5. A further degradation of partly digested food in the faeces was indicated by the activity of the extracellular digestive enzymes cellobiase and chitobiase. These enzymes hydrolysed material with an activity of 0.2–14.5 pkat mg–1 faecal dry mass in 1–12-day-old faeces. In faeces of Bithynia fed control food or incubated sycamore leaves, chitobiase activity was correlated with bacterial abundance.
6. Coprophagy is considered to be a suitable strategy for further degradation and utilization of refractory material for which one gut passage is too short and/or too inefficient. 相似文献
