The variability in percent of crushed shells in both slender-shaped Hornsnails (Pleuroceridae, 0-80%) and more globular shaped river snails (Viviparidae, 3-65%) that we observed (Table 2) supports the premise that black carp can detect size and shape of gastropod diet items.

In Brazil, the most common gastropods belong to the families Planorbidae, Ampullariidae, Hydrobiidae, Thiaridae and Pleuroceridae (Drugg-Hahn et al., 2007) and practices such as barrier construction, canalization, drainage and pollution of water bodies, especially by the indiscriminate use of pesticides in crops, have contributed to the destruction of the natural habitat of many species, causing their disappearance, as observed in several records of anthropogenic actions over time (Mansur et al., 2003; Allan, 2004; Souza & Melo, 2012; Muller, Granada & Sperotto, 2016).
