#ResearchJobs Interested in planning and conducting research related to wild animal resilience (broadly defined)? We're recruiting a Research Coordinator or Planner in wild animal experimentation here in Biological & Environmental Sciences at the University of Helsinki! Applications due Jan 19.
Dark lipped Cepaea nemoralis (on left) and pale-lipped Cepaea hortensis, yeah? No - both are C. nemoralis! See reply to see how they looked a couple of days later.
Lip colour and size is the conventional way to identify the two species, but it does not always work, especially in some regions (Cornwall, UK; Pyrenees, Spain), and depending upon age. There are also a lot of snails labelled "C. hortensis" on #iNaturalist that are more likely C. nemoralis. #snails #snail #cepaea
