  1. It's happening, snails on BBC Springwatch! In the end, four days work x 2 BBC staff plus myself as animal wrangler. For 5 minutes of film. #bbcspringwatch #snails #Cornu #UoN bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/mediapac

  2. #Snails are primarily marine #mollusks. According to current hypotheses, the #sistergroup might be #Cephalopoda plus #Scaphopoda (Link below) . One #Apomorphy, i.e. evolutionary new acquisitions of the stemspecies, is the #asymmetrical #shell that is wound in one direction, which is due to a #torsion of the #mantle and visceral sac.
    The species in my #photos is #Cornu #aspersum from Italy. #biodiversity,
