Welcome

            This website is intended to provide information about the land snail Columella simplex (Gould, 1841), more commonly known as the High Spire Column Snail.  There is specific information on this snail’s habitat and interactions with other species, and more general knowledge of its reproduction and nutrition. This snail has not been studied by many scientists so there is a lot to still be discovered about Columella simplex.
