Hygromia cinctella? May 23, 2013 15:47:33 GMT

Post by anachronism on May 23, 2013 15:47:33 GMT

Found 6 of these in my garden and I am pretty sure they are H. cinctella. Long shot but does anyone else have any of these? They are newly captured but seem to be eating a bit of salad leaf, will be monitoring them but can't see any issues with care as they were living in my garden

Would also be interested to see if anyone else has these "alien" snails in their garden, and to discuss them

Attachments:

19 Achatina fulica (11 normal, 3 jade, 3 rodatzi, 2 jadatzi)
5 Achatina fulica x albopicta
3 Achatina achatina
4 Limicolaria flammea
4 Limicolaria numidica
2 Archachatina marginata var suturalis
6 Pleurodonte isabella
3 Rumina decollata
? Subulina octona
8 Helix aspersa
14 Cepaea sp
2 Veronicella sloanei
2 Laevicaulis sp.

Nice finds. ;D To help determine species, could you advise locality ? Would go a long way to narrow things down !
