Auriculella perpusilla is a species of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks. This species is endemic to Hawaii.
Auriculella perpusilla is incredibly small, most adult shells reaching a height of around 6 millimeters. [2] Their thin shell has 5 strongly convex whorls with low spires and weakly reflected apertures. [2]
This species is endemic to the island of Oahu, Hawaii. In the past, Auriculella perpusilla inhabited wide parts of Eastern and North-Eastern Oahu throughout the Koolau Mountain Range. [2] This land snail was prevalent in the wet, rain-abundant forest-mountain regions. Today, this species has been only recorded in a specific mountain region near Honolulu. [2]
Achatinella apexfulva is an extinct species of colorful, tropical, arboreal pulmonate land snail in the family Achatinellidae, once present on Oahu, Hawaii. A. apexfulva is the type species of the genus Achatinella. The specific name, apexfulva, meaning "yellow-tipped", refers to the yellow tip of the snail's shell. Inspired from the taxon, the species has been given common names such as yellow-tipped Oʻahu tree snail or Hawaiian yellow-tipped tree snail. Officially, it is listed as ‘critically endangered’ by the IUCN, however, this is because its conservation status has not been updated in 28 years.

Auriculella ambusta is a species of air-breathing tropical land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Achatinellidae. This species is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands.
Auriculella is a genus of air-breathing tropical land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Achatinellidae. They are endemic to Hawaii and several species are extinct. They are oviparous and hermaphroditic. Among achatinellid snails, they are unique in the fact that they are not restricted to living on plants endemic to the Hawaiian islands. They have been known to relatively thrive on non-native plants such as ginger and night jasmine.
