Aperture elliptical or trapezoidal in shape. Shell elongate, thin, transparent, grayish. The horntail . It can grow to a length of 16 inches (400 millimeters) and is easily identifiable by the left-handed opening of the shell - meaning when you look at the shell, the opening is on the left.

Shell short and stocky. (Thompson, 2000). Many samplings of hydrobiids collected during the period of May through September are not identifiable because only immature forms are present, and important diagnostic anatomical characteristics have not yet developed.

University of Illinois Press, Urbana. (Thompson, 1968). Formalin does not even serve as a good fixative or preservative for long-term anatomical studies. In previous editions of the manual the Florida species were placed in the genus Physella. (This character separates only the genera under consideration; genera from other areas of the world do not conform to this distinction.) Nuclear whorl slightly protruding, 0.29-0.41 mm in diameter transverse to initial suture. University of Florida scientists say the nightmarishly named "rat lungworm" has been found in multiple species of snails in the Miami area, including the invasive giant African snail.

In parthenogenetic organisms each population is inbred in the strictest genetic sense, and frequently a population will have minor characteristics that distinguish it from others. In the USA, it was first identified in New Orleans in 1939, but now is found in the Gulf Coast states from Florida to Texas, as well as in Puerto Rico and Hawaii. Umbilicus of shell closed.

Last whorl of adult shell smooth or with growth striations, but not with ribs and spiral chords. 47). dalli (Lea, 1862). Some shells may be heavily encrusted with mineral deposit and algae, which may obscure details of the sculpture and color. The reappearance of an invasive snail species forced state officials to enact a quarantine order two weeks ago for residents of Florida's Pasco County, an area north of Tampa along the gulf.
