Field Notes

Description:

Tiny! Barely 5mm across. Translucent, thin, very shiney shell. Beautiful brown amber colour. Did not see it outside of its shell, so couldn't get a look at its underside. Smooth, flattish shell.

Habitat:

Sitting on lichen on a dead tree in a leafy backyard.

Notes:

Might be a Camaenidae. Most likely a land dweller rather than tree dweller due to shell shape.
