Parmarion martensi is a unique and interesting type of land snail, this snail is a member of the Parmarionidae family, its shell is relatively small and not even visible at all, while its body shape is unique, making it easy to recognize in its natural habitat, I found this snail above The weed plants are dry and crawling to move to another place that is cooler than the original place.

If you have the desire to explore and find this unique species, then you can go to tropical and subtropical forests, because basically these land snails can only be found in tropical and subtropical areas with a somewhat shady environment. Several times I tried to observe and learn why these snails keep moving, and the fact that I discovered is that these land snails avoid direct sunlight, so if you want to find land snails in tropical forests then you have to make sure that the exploration location you do is suitable for the land snail's living needs.

At first glance, these land snails can be considered weak creatures because they only rely on small steps to move places, and these land snails also show no signs of ecosystem damage caused by them, so I still have to do further research to find some Interesting things about land snails such as how they eat, reproduce and protect themselves from predators, I think these three parts are very important to learn because in this way I can share my insights with all of you and the rest can protect the survival of these beautiful creatures.
