Cylindrella

/ˌsɪlɪnˈdrɛlə/ noun

Definition

A genus of small, slender, cylindrical land snails found primarily in tropical regions.

Etymology

From 'cylinder' plus the diminutive suffix '-ella' (little). The scientific name refers to the characteristically tiny, elongated spiral shell of these snails.

Kelly Says

These microscopic snails are so small that an entire species could fit on the head of a pin, yet taxonomists have identified over 100 different Cylindrella species, each found on only one tiny island or mountaintop—making them among the most vulnerable creatures on Earth!
