Description: | This snail is found throughout the British Isles and western Europe as far as the arctic. It lives in many different environments but usually prefers damp places. There are many different colour morphs in this species. The shell normally has a white lip, but can vary in colour from dark brown to yellow or white and may also have dark bands. This highly visible variation has made the snail a popular study animal with scientists interested in population genetics. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | animals North East natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
