Snail found on the reserve


This is a snail found on the reserve a couple of weeks ago.
I think its one of the heath snails Helicella italia any other ideas?

Don't know much about snails but I have noticed that Banded Snails
(two species - dark lipped and light lipped;the lip being the leading edge to the shell - ) can appear in an unbanded colour form. That is, without the black spiral stripes around the shell.
