Is this the rare Cahaba Elimia?
I tried iNaturalist, which didn’t help as much as I’d hoped. Thought I’d give this a shot instead!
I went down to see the Cahaba Lily blooms over weekend near West Blocton, AL USA (my first time in the area) and these snails were ALLLLLL over the submerged river rocks. Varying sizes, but all small and striped like this one. I figured they were invasive based on their abundance, but I just learned that there are some hyper endemic species around this area. Should have done more preparatory reading about it! I’m totally kicking myself over this singular, after thought of a photo. At least I got one! Can anyone help me figure out who this is?
