White-lipped snail : ウィキペディア英語版 | White-lipped snail
The white-lipped snail (''Cepaea hortensis'') is a medium-sized species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc. It is a close relative of the grove snail. == Shell description ==
The white-lipped snail is very slightly smaller than the grove snail, the shell being usually about in maximum dimension. Like the grove snail (brown-lipped snail), it has considerable variability in shell colour and banding, although the shell of the white-lipped snail is perhaps most commonly yellow, with or without brown banding. The principal distinguishing feature of this species is a white lip at the aperture of the shell in adult specimens, although very rarely the brown-lipped grove snail can have a white lip, and ''vice versa''.〔(Simon Whipps, July 2009; last updated July 2009.
