Land Snail (Cryptozona sp.)

Time goes by so fast. There is no time to relax; everyone is racing to reach the finish line. But that doesn't apply to snails. They live a relaxed and carefree life. "If you can do something relaxed, then why rush?" maybe that's the snail's motto. LOL!

Latin name	Observation date	Location
Cryptozona sp.	30.10.2023	Lhokseumawe, Aceh, Indonesia

I noticed this snail crawling in the leaf litter. Could it be a land snail? Judging from the snail's physical appearance, it seems so.

The snail's shell is mocha brown with dark brown spots, disc-shaped with a spiral pattern on the surface.

I observed that this kind of snail likes a moist environment (wet soil, leaf litter, or damp twigs).

I tried moving the snail to a green leaf and photographing it from another angle.

Oh, this guy feels uncomfortable. That's not where it should be. Put it back on the ground, and then say goodbye.
