EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the enchanting beauty of Brown-lipped snails (Cepaea nemoralis) in their natural habitat. The image captures a duo of these terrestrial gastropods gracefully perched on a branch, delicately balanced above water. Also known as grove or banded snails, these fascinating creatures can be found in various countries across the globe. Measuring between 2 to 3 centimetres in diameter, the shells of these snails exhibit an array of colors and banding patterns that vary depending on their geographical location. Their spiral-shaped shells are truly mesmerizing, showcasing nature's artistic touch. As land-dwelling mollusks belonging to the pulmonate family, Brown-lipped snails possess unique air-breathing capabilities. This enables them to thrive both on land and near bodies of water like the one depicted in this photograph. The intricate details captured by Science Photo Library highlight not only the aesthetic appeal but also provide valuable insights into zoology and biology for researchers and enthusiasts alike. With its focus on fauna and wildlife photography, this image perfectly encapsulates the wonder and diversity found within our natural world.
