Two Introduced Cepaea Species (Gastropoda, Helicidae) in Ternopil, Western Ukraine, and Specifics of Their Phenotypic Composition
The shell colour and banding polymorphism of Cepaea was studied at 6 sites of Ternopil. Cepaea hortensis was found at all sites, its cohabitation with C. nemoralis was recorded in three cases. Phenotypes were determined in 1166 adult snails or empty shells with well-preserved colouration (830 C. hor...
