Description: Photographic study by Jean-Marie Cavanihac of these marine organisms, with photographs of a typical rasping radula and some animated sequences.
Everybody knows the terrestrial snails, (some people eat them, but don't be afraid I don't eat them!) But many species of freshwater snails, marine snails and even marine slugs exist too. For an amateur microscopist it's very interesting to study young snails and the eggs. Some marine snails are often found on algae and other snail species create a sort of ball of jelly which have the size of a chicken egg! These balls contains several hundred eggs. Inside the transparent shell you can see all the organs.
