Malacologists,

There's a colony of the introduced land snail, Xerolenta obvia, west of
Ottawa, which we've been checking on for a few years now -

...and at our most recent visit, I scooped up about 500 ml of dormant
living snails -

If anyone could use them for genetic or other research just let me know,
and we'll work out shipping.
