Oxychilus draparnaudi, or Draparnaud's glass snail, [1] is a species of small land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusc in the family Oxychilidae, the glass snails. [2]
Oxychilus draparnaudi is large for a zonitid glass snail, also called the dark-bodied glass snail with a shell of about 14 mm (0.55 in) in maximum dimension. The shell is glossy and is a translucent yellowish-brown and gold in color, somewhat whiter underneath. [3]
The visible soft parts of the animal are a very unusual strong dark blue, mixed with grey. [3]
This species occurs in countries and islands including:
and other areas
Synonyms include Oxychilus drapanaldi, Oxychilus lucidum, Helix lucida, Helix nitida, Helicella draparnaldi, and Polita draparnaldi. [5]
Cornu aspersum, known by the common name garden snail, is a species of land snail in the family Helicidae, which includes some of the most familiar land snails. Of all terrestrial molluscs, this species may well be the most widely known. It was classified under the name Helix aspersa for over two centuries, but the prevailing classification now places it in the genus Cornu.

A land snail is any of the numerous species of snail that live on land, as opposed to the sea snails and freshwater snails. Land snail is the common name for terrestrial gastropod mollusks that have shells. However, it is not always easy to say which species are terrestrial, because some are more or less amphibious between land and fresh water, and others are relatively amphibious between land and salt water.
Cochlicopa lubrica is a species of small air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Cochlicopidae.
