Hello all - anyone willing to have a stab at this snail? Photographed on the coast of South Wales near Newport last week ...   |

Afternoon Jez,
It has a look of the Kentish Snail to it...
Take care, Jason  |

I'll have a stab at Draparnaud's snail Oxychilus drapardnaudi as the last coil expands quickly distinguishing from O. cellarius. I think they are quite variable in colour but I would wait for a second opinion.
Great image. |

Kentish/ Carthusian did cross my mind, Jason. More than happy to accept your bid, I did wonder about the distribution of Kentish more toward the SE but I know see that it extends into S Wales. | | |
