ABSTRACT
This work was designed to study the role of ampullarid snail, Lanistes carinatus as biological control of Biomphalaria alexandrina. The obtained results showed that L.carinatus snail has a voracious appetite for B.alexandrina egg masses even in the presence of green aquatic vegetation. The survival rate of adult B.alexandrina snails and their egg masses production significantly decrease with the increase of L.carinatus snails
