Hi Hopea  I checked that name and can't find an "immaculate stuhlmanni". Where did you get this name ?  There's an Achatina immaculata known from South Africa, and there's an A. stuhlmanni known from the Congo and neighboring areas, but they are separate species.  |

Great photos Snail 1 seems to have suffered a major trauma not too long ago, look at that massive healed break in his shell in the third photo down. This may account for the odd internal color of the aperture - light brown ? I would agree that they are probably fulicas. |

When I firsted started keeping snails years ago people were selling snails as a.stuhlmanni which were later identified as a immaculata since they looked different to the other sub species this name stuck
