Der Tigerschnegel (Limax maximus) ist hinsichtlich der Größe (bis 13 cm) und der Tigerfärbung eine beeindruckende Erscheinung. Um ihn von dem ähnlichen Schwarzen Schnegel (Limax cinereoniger) zu unterscheiden, braucht es einen Blick auf die einfarbig helle Sohle.

A tiny snail. No idea what kind, except that it's very cute! Love these things.

The #snail #Arianta #arbustorum (#Helicidae, #Gastropoda) is a land snail (#Stylommatophora) that is quite common in #Berlin, especially in urban #forest areas. However, the snail is flexible in terms of its #ecological requirements and can also be found in open areas. It is widespread in Central Europe and northwestern Europe and primarily requires #moisture. It also appears in #mountainous areas of up to 2700 m. #biodiversity #Mollusca

The #terrestrial #pulmonate #gastropods (#Stylommatophora, Gastropoda) have two pairs of #retractile #tentacles, an #apomorphy (#evolutionary innovation of the stem species) of the higher taxon Euthyneura. The rear pair of tentacles is elongated and has #eyes at its tips.
My photos show them in a close #macro shot using the Mediterranean #snail #species #Cornu #aspersum (#Helicidae).
