Description: Euglandina rosea (Férussac, 1821) - rosy wolf snail shells, modern (latest Holocene) The gastropods (snails & slugs) are a group of molluscs that occupy marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. Most gastropods have a calcareous external shell (the snails). Some lack a shell completely, or have reduced internal shells (the slugs & sea slugs & pteropods). Most members of the Gastropoda are marine. Most marine snails are herbivores (algae grazers) or predators/carnivores. The rosy wolf snail is a type of land snail - they are air-breathers. Classification: Animalia, Mollusca, Gastropoda, Pulmonata, Spiraxidae Locality: bases of large trees in & near Gulfside City Park, near-southern shore of Sanibel Island, Gulf of Mexico coast of southern Florida, USA See info. at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euglandina_rosea.
