#Pupillidae

[thegrandimago]

Taken 2021 16th November, orthocones weren't the only shells to be found. Hibernating beneath the rocks were lapidary snails (Helicigona lapicida), or linssnäckan, which have flat shells useful for fitting into tight crevices. I didn't notice at first, but there are structures I thought were fly pupae, but they were in fact I believe moss chrysalis-snails (Pupilla muscorum), or ängspuppsnäcka. #animal #animals #djur #wildlife #naturliv #invertebrate #invertebrates #snail #snails #landsnails #landsnail #blötdjur #storsnäckor #mollusks #mollusk #snäckor #snäcka #animalia #mollusca #gastropoda #gastropod #gastropods #stylommatophora #helicidae #helicigona #helicigonalapicida #lapidarysnail #pupillidae #pupilla #pupillamuscorum (at Stenbrottet I Hällekis) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYYPXGEg9Mz/?utm_medium=tumblr
