Left and right coiling Euhadra snails living together, Shizukoa, Japan. Sinistral (on left) is E. scaevola, dextral is E. peliomphala. Gene flow unlikely, they are quite distantly related.

New babies expected in the lab, soon! Absolutely massive eggs 🥚 from this dextral clausilid snail 🐌 (must have been painful, ouch).

Helicopter trip into West Maui mountains to collect chirally variable Lymnaeid snails 🐌, funded by BBSRC International Collaboration award with Ken Hayes and Norine Yeung at Bishop Museum, Honolulu. Think I am rocking the rebel fighters from Star Wars look?

Not at #popgroup56, because needed family time prior to am heading out soon for first foreign field work since 2019. And its a good one: Hawaii working with collaborators at the Bishop Museum on chirally variable snails 🐌, funded by BBSRC. Beyond excited! Slightly cheesy 🧀 video highlights previous trip.
