Plentuisa vendia is a species of land snail in the subfamily Helicellinae of the family Geomitridae, [2] the hairy snails and their allies.
This snail is known only from the Picos de Europa range in northern Spain. It has been found at only three locations. There it lives in open, rocky habitat, taking shelter in crevices and under plants. Its entire range is within Picos de Europa National Park, where it receives some protection. [3]
Helicidae is a large, diverse family of western Palaearctic, medium to large-sized, air-breathing land snails, sometimes called the "typical snails." It includes some of the largest European land snails, several species are common in anthropogenic habitats, and some became invasive on other continents. A number of species in this family are valued as food items, including Cornu aspersum the brown or garden snail, and Helix pomatia. The biologies of these two species in particular have been thoroughly studied and documented.
