A few months ago I found a cool little snail at a farm I was visiting. He's the size of this ---->. o I have no idea what species he is, but I found him in Ontario. Please help!!! His shell is light beige, with a thin shell, and his body is brownish black in color. I'd really like to know what kind he is. Thanks!

If you could post a photo, that would be helpful in IDing your snail.

My first thought is that maybe it's a cepaea, but its usually very hard to ID snails correctly without pictures.

I've seen a lot of snails that fit that description in Canada, but as others say you'll need to post a picture to narrow it down.

I'm pretty sure that it's a microphysula, but I'm not certain

I'm sorry you've not had more replies. Most of us are not very knowledgeable on snails outside the pet trade or our own countries. My best advice would be to try and find an ID guide of snails in ontario. this would tell you which characteristics you need to look for to help ID. best of luck

No.. It's probably just a garden snail or something
