Fifteen volunteers conducted this week's survey under warm and mostly cloudy conditions. The snail shown below is a pulmonate species that breathes air at the water's surface through a lung-like structure called a pneumostome. It is commonly found in warm or stagnant ponds and is an intermediate carrier of the Liver Fluke (Fasciola hepatica).
