Helicidae
The Helicidae, sometimes known as the typical snails, are a taxonomic family of small to large, air-breathing, land snails. In other words, they are terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks. A number of species in this family are valued as food items, including ''Cornu aspersum'' (formerly ''Helix aspersa'') the garden snail, and ''Helix pomatia'' the "escargot".〔M.P. Kerney & R.A.D. Cameron. 1979. ''A field guide to the land snails of Britain and northwestern Europe''. Collins, London.〕 The biology of these two species in particular has been much studied. ==Shell description== The shells of these snails are mostly rather globular in shape. In some genera, such as ''Cepaea'', the shells are brightly colored and patterned.
