A single love dart is shot at a time, due to the lengthy process of regeneration.

These snails use the love dart as part of their mating behavior.

There is considerable variety in both the overall shape and the cross section of the love dart.

The love dart is curved at the end, with lens-like section.

The reproductive system of Ariophanta laevipes includes a love dart.

The love dart of this species is thorn-shaped.

The love dart has four blades or vanes.

The instructions for the darts explain that when someone is poked with love dart they are immediately attracted to the first person they see.

Marsha activates the love dart, sending Commissioner Gordon under her spell and in captivity.

H. aspersa snails stab a calcite spine, known as a "love dart", at their partner.

It was observed that snails that rub against their mates, will forcefully place the love dart into their mate.

The following tables or charts show numerous examples of love dart morphology, on a family by family and species by species basis.

Hunt S.: The structure and composition of the love dart (gypsobelum) in Helix pomatia.

A cross-section of the love dart shows a cross with simple blades, whereas that of C. hortensis has bifurcated blades.

While the band walks home from a gig, Ray throws a love dart catching a prissy Jersey Girl named Angela.

A love dart (also known as a gypsobelum) is a sharp, calcareous or chitinous dart which some hermaphroditic land snails and slugs create.

The anatomy of this family is defined by the presence of a diverticulum and three to four dart apparatuses (the love dart is used in mating behaviour).

In areas where lip colour is variable, dissection is necessary: the structure of the love dart is quite different in the two species, as are the vaginal mucus glands.

Ray enlists Fozzie's help in creating the "most romantic six hours" ensuring that Kelly will remain in love with Ray after the love dart's initial power ends.

The love dart is created and stored before use in a highly muscular internal anatomical structure known as the stylophore or dart sac (also known as the bursa telae).

Professor Ronald Chase of McGill University in Montreal has suggested the ancient myth of Cupid's arrows might be based on early observations of the love dart behavior of the land snail species Helix aspersa.

"Calcareous" is used as an adjectival term applied to anatomical structures which are made primarily of calcium carbonate, in animals such as gastropods, i.e., snails, specifically about such structures as the operculum, the clausilium, and the love dart.

This snail family is distinguished from other gastropods on the basis of several anatomical features: They have no dart apparatus (see love dart), the muscles which allow the eyes and pharynx to be retracted are united into a single band, and the jaws are ribbed.
