title: [Effect of parasitism on the resistance of Cionella lubrica Müller to temperature and desiccation].
abstract: In an experimental study carried out on a strain of Cionella lubrica, it was shown that this species could survive at high temperatures ranged from 37 degrees C to 40 degrees C and in drought situations for periods of 50 to 70 days. The young snails were more resistant than adults. The snails infected by D. lanceolatum survived less than uninfected snails. As a result, it is suggested that the optimal times for the application of biological control of C. lubrica would be May-June and September-October for the region of Limousin.
